Some thing that will follow me

I recall a couple of years ago seeing a pan/tilt follower unit for video
cameras that locks on to a "pendant" that you carry around. I have no idea
of the weight restrictions or if the fan motor noise will interfere, but
it's something that might be worth checking out.
Good luck.

around!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????
Hi every one,
I have an interesting request. I live in Florida and now it's
getting hot here and I work in a BIG shop. It gets pretty hot inside.
So i'm going to take a blower out of a air handler from a house A/C
system and have it blowing at me, but I move around in a are about
200 sqf and the most is 20' from the fan. And I need to figure out a
way to have the fan turn were ever I go. I was think of using a
small TX that's in my pocket and three antenas by the fan that will
detect signal strenght and turn coresponding to the area were the
signal it the strongest. Or some sort of the IR beacon on my head!?
Throw me any feed back because I have never tried any thing like this
and don't even know were to start. I never even heard one any one
triyng to make some thing like this.
Thanks every one
Dennis
