Bladeless Fan


"Blade-Free Fan"

Using the Dyson

I'm not sure if this directly pertains to sensors, but I think it is an interesting look into how a household device (in this case the Dyson) can be easily transformed into project ideas. While I would hardly call this a conceptual art piece, I figured it might give people some ideas that involve using existing components. I know there are a ton of different projects out there that are based on appropriating other systems, but this one really caught my attention, largely due to its simplicity. I've included a link (click the quoted title) to the website which has an article explaining the physics that went into designing this object.
