AirEnergy 3D is a compact, portable and fully upgradable wind turbine created by Omni3D, a manufacturer of 3D printers. The device is designed to be modifiable and open source. Users can even use a standard 3D printer to add new turbine blades to the contraption.
In ideal conditions, the AirEnergy 3D turbine is capable of generating and storing 300 watts of power. This essentially means you can plug in a smartphone or laptop or insert the generator into a wall socket and send harnessed electricity back into the grid. This could make the contraption a useful system to generate electricity off the grid.
The AirEnergy 3D can be transported with ease and can be assembled anywhere without using power tools.
