Cloud Rings
Launch a ring of fog.
Cloud Rings uses a mist generator and a large rubber membrane with a hole in the middle to launch a ring of vapor up to the ceiling. The ring is generated by the friction between the hole’s edge and the vapor flowing through the hole, which forms a swirling pattern known as a vortex.
