PanARMENIAN.Net - Tech company ArcaSpace has introduced the ArcaBoard, which can hover for a whole six minutes at a time, Digital Spy reports.

According to the company, the board generates 430 pounds of thrust (272 horsepower) from 36 electric fans.

"With a hefty price tag of $19,900, we can't see too many of these being sold, but we'd definitely have one if we could," Digital Spy said.

The promotional video for the board sees ArcaSpace's CEO Dumitru Popescu say: "I've always wanted to create a commercially available product for the masses.

But the creation of this truly revolutionary product proves that Arca is not only able to create amazing technologies, but is actually engineering the future."

Hoverboards have been everywhere this year, with Lexus amongst the companies debuting new ones.
