Chris Reigler, an electrical engineering student from the University of Queensland in Australia has a project that will wow you away. His floating LevLight project could one day revolutionize the way we change burnt out light bulbs.

The LevLight combines magnetic levitation with convenience of wireless power and could make changing a lightbulb as easy as just tossing a new bulb up into the air where it's captured by a magnetic field, where it automatically start glowing.

His project is a proof of concept video, and though while still small in scale, it could one day be just like that. Check out the video after the jump![Chris Rieger via Technabob]
