For a couple of years now, hoverboards have appeared on the market, enjoying great success: it is a sort of technological evolution of the skateboard that represents a bit of the means of transport of the future. This motorized skate features two wheels in a parallel position that are connected to weight and movement sensors that allow you to maneuver this particular means of transport.

The wheels of the hoverboards are of two standard sizes: for the basic models, they are around 6 inches, up to 10.5 for the extra-large models, which however is less portable. As for the weight, this is on average close to 10 kg , so it is not a really comfortable object to carry under the arm.
