We ALL have this problem!
No matter if you are at home or at the office, we ALL have this problem!

The problem I am talking about?

Well, I mean a very simple one: being too hot and making you uncomfortable.

Normal fans? They may work just fine; however, they are not smart. They don’t know when you are comfortable, and they don’t know how annoying they may be.

As someone who lives in Las Vegas, Nevada, where temperatures can reach past a hundred degrees Fahrenheit (~38 degrees Celsius), I believe that I am very experienced in this topic and well equipped to make a solution to this problem. No matter where you may live, this may help you.

And the solution?
Sensors and the ability to tune your fan to your preferences!
This includes:
a temperature sensor
a rotary encoder
an LCD/OLED screen

This means you can tune your fan to turn on and off whenever it gets too hot, no more fighting over turning the fan on and off manually, and the ability to change fan speed allows you to make sure the fan doesn’t get too loud or simply so it doesn’t mess up your hair (totally no personal experience in this)

Within my first hour of this project, I have worked on getting measurements and working on designs for my project, inspired by a classic desktop fan.
