Abstract

A drying apparatus includes a body, a controller, a thermal sensor to sense an ambient temperature, a humidity sensor to sense an ambient humidity, an air outlet to vent an airflow, a flow generator to generate the airflow within the body, and a thermoelectric device including an inward surface and an outward surface, where the inward surface heats or cools the airflow generated by the flow generator. The controller is configured to control a temperature of the inward surface of the thermoelectric device based on the ambient temperature and the ambient humidity.
