Acoustic levitation is a technology that uses sound waves to lift and manipulate small objects without physical contact. This phenomenon occurs because sound waves create regions of high and low pressure in the air, known as standing waves. When an object is placed in a standing wave, the forces exerted by the pressure variations can balance the force of gravity, allowing the object to remain suspended in mid-air.
