I bet it still gives you arthritis of the face if you sit directly in front of it for 10 minutes.

I bet this is an R&D by-product to fund a hovercar using upscaled air-multiplier (tm) technolology.
It fucking better be.

Does he just sit around thinking "A video cassette...BUT ROUND, BECAUSE CORNERS ARE OLD FASHIONED... yeah, and ...a deck chair, BUT WITH A LIQUID GEL MEMBRANE INSTEAD OF FABRIC, BECAUSE FABRIC IS, errrr, WEAVY AND, AND OLD"?

I'm struggling to understand the actual benefit here. I've never utilised a fan and felt unduly buffeted, and what's wrong with blades?
I bet this thing costs ten times more, chews up ten times more energy and conks out much easier than a bog-standard fan.

Ah, so it (presumbly) pumps air from those inlet valves in the 'handle' and pumps it out of a hairline exit around the perimeter.
Coanda effect it is, then. Neato.
- I'm guessing it uses a smaller, faster motor, so would be curious to know how loud it is in comparison with a typical fandetritus

K, the words 'Coanda effect' pop into mind here, but... k, fuckit - how on Earth does this thing work? Magnetic brushless fan within the interior of the perimeter hoop?

The first ever bladeless fan.
The Dyson Air Multiplier™ fan works very differently to conventional fans. It uses Air Multiplier™ technology to draw in air and amplify it 15 times, producing an uninterrupted stream of smooth air. With no blades or grill, it’s safe, easy to clean and doesn’t cause unpleasant buffeting.
