Levitating Lamp

As much as the levitating lamp sounds incredible, it is merely just a light bulb floating on top of a base. A magnet inside the bulb contains a coil which receives the electricity transmitted from the base and powers the bulb through the air. As for the levitation, when gravity pulls the bulb downward, the opposing force of the magnetism causes it to repel the base, leaving it suspended in air.

In the most basic form, a phone is essentially a two-way radio, consisting of a radio transmitter and a radio receiver. When you chat with your friend on your phone, your phone converts your voice into an electrical signal, which is then transmitted via radio waves to the nearest cell tower.
For other things, this is the same except instead of calls it broadcasts messages such as ‘5+ points’, etc. and a cell tower recieves them.
