Garden agua: three-dimensional tangible display enabled by arranged water jet

Published: 19 November 2013 Publication History

Abstract

Levitation refers to the process of floating in the air in a stable position without physical contact points against gravity. This was a mysterious phenomenon that many have wanted to experience for many years. Such wishes are expressed in the Bible, for instance when Jesus crossed the Red Sea, and when Peter wanted to walk on water with Jesus. Such phenomena, floating in the air and walking on water, were nothing short of miracles to people. Garden Agua was devised to realize these human aspirations.
