How Active Cooling Maximizes Heat Removal Better Than A Fan
video description
Also, that noise comparison sample isn't just quieter but also has a much more pleasant sound signature (I'm not a fan of centrifugal fans/blowers in laptops). Very interested in seeing this hit the market.

That is whisper-quiet. I'd be really interested to see what kind of exotic cooling you could do with this. And I'm also curious what kind upper limit we have on how many watts you can dissipate
To me this would be really great for Led backlights in televisions. Or even OLED. Imagine an OLED having the cooling capacity of a BVM without the huge increase in form factor. This technology is insanely cool.
I also have two any beam MEMS laser projectors. They are already fanless and low Watt, but if you could put one of these inside you could potentially get a much Brighter Image out of a Pico projector like that. I wish this company nothing but success

The solid-state definition is not about using motors or not; it's about being semiconductor-based, and that's why quartz watches are solid-state. You usually define semiconductor-based as devices that have their functionality based on compounds of silicon, germanium and gallium (as those are the main commercially viable semiconductors we know of).
Quartz is Silicon Oxide. That's why some people consider quartz watches solid-state, even when they do have a stepping motor to move the arms.

Schlieren imaging will create images from a fan, but it relies on a density change, yes it is easier to see a density change if there is a temperature difference, but just the act of moving air, will create low pressure and high pressure zones, eddied currents, and areas where fast moving air collides with slow moving air resulting in localized high density

Very cool tech, MEMS will always be cool to me. I do wonder if this could benefit from a more complex heat spreader/cold plate. The image provided looks like an empty copper can, skiving(cutting micro fins in the cold plate like a water cooler) would really help with the overall surface area and (potentially) the cooling capacity.

So confused with this video, it felt like a half an hour ad of something we can't even buy. I really dislike how they keep hating on fans but at the same time they say they can't cool anything bigger than a 20w chip. I love new tech advances but this look really suspicious, can't wait for 3rd party testing to validate their claims.

Considering the height, combined with thin vapor chambers to increase the surface area, something like six Airjet Pro should be easily possible even in laptops and 56w of near silent cooling would be quite something. And with some creativity, some crazy results and products could be realized, I believe.

What I would love to know is can they be increased in size without compromising the quality of the product? Would be interesting to see how they are attached to gpus someday, would they just attach 8 or just create one big one for a gpu.

I am intrigued by how they caught the thermal trail at 14:50 with a Canon DSLR and what appears to be a kit lens? It would be interesting to know the camera model, lens, and macro lens add on. Anything pertinent to achieve the image.

If they implement this technology in gaming and high end phones that would be interesting. Like swapping in and swapping out when not needed from back side of phones.
Handheld like steam decks could benefit from this.

I wonder if we can see a gen 3/4/5/6 where you can slap one on a GPU board or even on both sides and blast all heat directly out the pc. Though by the time they get better they'll need to cool a 6070/80/90...

Pretty impressive, and not bought up yet by Intel or Apple. Laptops, tablets are a no-brainer but so is everything around it like NVME and Handhelds, Sony Cameras that are known for overheating.

multi physics design they re trying real hard to go down the snake oil magic marketing lane, even though the underlying tech appears to be real not sure why so many startups fall into this trap

Will these be aftermarket usable to replace existing fan based cooling solutions in laptops to extend lifespans, or will they only be deployable in an OEM fashion?

I appreciate Gordon asking good questions, sometimes things are to good to be true. It looks something true, look forward to products having them.
