If you didn\u2019t know any better, you might think it\u2019s magic.<\/p>\n

David Garcia gave TechCrunch a demo video demonstration of a device developed by his company, Yplasma<\/a>. A row of five candles sit in front of a harmonica-like device with wires hanging off it. Suddenly, the flames flicker and then snuff out.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Inside the device, two strip<\/a>s of copper coursing with electrical current are generating plasmas, or clouds of charged particles, that induce airflow through the cavity and out over the candles.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s nothing a fan couldn\u2019t do, but Yplasma\u2019s actuator has no moving parts, and the strips are thin and flexible.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s cheap to manufacture, is very thin, so it fits everywhere, and also consumes very little energy,\u201d Garcia told TechCrunch.<\/p>\n

A small fan in a laptop might use 3 to 4 watts, Garcia said, but Yplasma\u2019s actuator would only use 1 watt to cool the same amount. Plus, its flexible form factor means it\u2019s easier to fit in increasingly space-constrained consumer electronics.<\/p>\n
