Innovation Descriptions
Many times at night the temperature goes down, and one has to physically get up from sleep and reduce the fan speed, which is quite irritating. The innovator has come up with an electronic system that will automatically adjust the rotational speed of the room fan according to the room temperature enabling a person to sleep peacefully and comfortably.
