YPlasma is set to unveil a new solid-state laptop cooler at CES 2026, utilizing ionized gas and electrical discharge to generate airflow for ultra-quiet cooling at 17 dBA. This innovative design incorporates DBD plasma actuators, a first for consumer electronics, and will also cater to cooling AI-focused servers. By employing Dielectric Barrier Discharge plasma actuators, YPlasma's coolers can operate without moving parts, boasting a thin profile of 200 microns for seamless integration onto internal components. Unlike Frore System's AirJet coolers, YPlasma's solution focuses on safe consumer use by limiting harmful byproducts and will be showcased at CES for a live demo.
