Say hello to the gyrofan

We’ve got a long way to go when it comes to beating Dyson in the ‘reinventing fans’ department. However, the Satellite fan is quite a stunner. Designed to overthrow those godawful floor standing fans that only rotate on one axis and have a rotation span of not more than a 100 degrees, the Satellite fan spins on all three axes, and covers 720 degrees. This means your fan can shoot wind in all directions, and with the Satellite fan’s companion app, you could exploit the fan’s skills even further by custom setting a spin pattern. Isn’t that just cool?!
