SISIGAD Forum blog.sisigadgets.com New article on January 26, 2022 How Hoverboards became popular? The article explains the origin and popularity of hoverboards to give people a better understanding of hoverboards.
Hoverboards are basically skateboards without wheels that fly over the ground while carrying people. Basically, it’s a hover board – I know, it’s crazy.
Hoverboards were first mentioned in Michael K. Joseph’s “The Hole of Zero,” published in 1967. Before Michael Joseph, American aeronautical engineer Charles Zimmerman also designed a flying platform that looked like a large hoverboard.
Zimmerman’s concept later inspired the small experimental aircraft Hiller VZ-1 Pawnee. The Shearer Aircraft developed this bizarre suspended platform for the U.S. military and successfully flew it in 1955. Nonetheless, only 6 were built as the military did not consider these platforms useful for military operations. With the technology of the time, it was still impossible to manufacture hoverboards.
After the release of Robert Zemeckis’ Back to the Future II in 1989, the idea of the hoverboard gained enormous popularity. During the chase sequence of the movie, Marty McFly is being chased by a group of bullies, who rides a pink hoverboard. Over the past 20 years, many tech companies and experts have tried to create a flying board similar to the hoverboard in the movie.
Interestingly, Back to the Future II takes place in 2015, and hoverboards are common in this fictional film. They’re not that popular yet, but they’re getting there.
In recent years, the technology of hoverboards has become more and more mature, and various hoverboards have emerged as the times require. In particular, hoverboards with all kinds of high-tech are also welcomed by more and more people. For these reasons, hoverboards have become more and more popular.
