[Future of Materials @future_material]

Science has spoken: magic carpets actually exist. Well, sort of. They’re not quite the kind you sit on and fly around with, although they do have the amazing power to make things move.

Meet the Magnetic Carpet. ⬇ 🧲

[Future of Materials @future_material]

What does the future hold for magnetic carpets? Will they give rise to a new industrial hybrid, like a self-sorting conveyor belt, or is their true calling yet to be revealed? Do these wiggly, willful surfaces go beyond the domestic bliss of a self-cleaning carpet?
