Dyson Airblade

Sir James Dyson har i over 30 år funnet opp interessante teknologier. 
Han fokuserer helt klart på forbedringer av eksisterende teknologi. 
På 70-tallet utviklet han en forbedret støvsuger, G force, som du kanskje har sett hjemme hos noen.
Den siste store industrialiseringen er Air blade. Dette er en sterkt forbedret håndtørker som mange av oss har brukt ute på restauranter mens vi imponert har ristet på hodet og sett at den perfekt har tørket hendene på 10 sekunder.

Dysons kreasjoner har en veldig `hvorfor har ikke jeg tenkt på dette`-effekt.

Her er hans siste oppfinnelse, en vifte som multipliserer luftstrømmen 15 ganger ved hjelp av passiv teknologi.

Sir James Dyson is a genius. Any man that can make vacuum cleaners cool, deserves some form of technological kudos.

Not just that, but he has made this writer wax lyrical about how 'fun' his 'Airblade hand dryers' are. If a company has got you excited about drying your hands, then quite frankly they are capable of anything. However, Dyson always seems to be holding back, creating devices that are sleek and sexy and much better than their mainstream rivals... but nothing world-changing. If they can make the world's greatest and most energy efficient hand dryer, why don't they try developing alternative energy sources or the flying car?

This week, the company has unveiled their latest contraption - the Dyson Air Multiplier - a fan that creates airflow without blades. Dyson has said it is simply due to the problems caused by regular fans, such as the difficulty in cleaning them and their ability to catch fingers, but you can't help but feel it's a solution to a non-existent problem, especially when he defends it by saying it gives you "smoother air."

Despite my cynicism, it does show that Dyson isn't afraid to move into different markets, however it has taken the firm three years to come up with The Air Multiplier. Also, it appears the company's innovation comes not from a drive to make money (I mean how big is the desktop fan market really?), but from a desire to do something different.
