If you find yourself bored sometime, don't automatically reach for your phone or TV remote. Why not try levitating some objects instead? Thanks to some researchers at the University of Bristol, that could be your next rainy day activity. TinyLev is a 3D printed acoustic levitator capable of suspending small bits of matter like water and paper in mid-air, and the scientists have published instructions so that anyone can make their own.
