A hoverboard is a fictional transportation device that allows the rider to glide and levitate above the ground. It is often depicted as a skateboard-like platform with no wheels, propelled by futuristic technology such as magnets or air jets.
Currently, there are no hoverboards available for public use. While there have been several prototypes and concept designs, none have been developed or released for commercial use.
Hoverboards require advanced technology that is not yet available. The concept of hovering above the ground without any physical contact is still a challenge for scientists and engineers to achieve.
Yes, there are ongoing research and development projects for hoverboards. However, most of these are still in the early stages and it may take several years before a functional hoverboard is created.
It is difficult to predict the future, but it is possible that hoverboards could become a popular mode of transportation in the far future. However, there are many technical and safety challenges that need to be addressed before this can become a reality.
