The Pneumatic Diversity Vent E3 Demo Promotional image.

The Aperture Science Pneumatic Diversity Vent is a game mechanic that was to originally intended to appear in Portal 2. The Vent was cut from the final release however, and instead only makes a few cameos. Valve has not released any statement on whether or not the Vents will make an appearance in any DLC.

Function

The Pneumatic Diversity Vent possesses a powerful vacuum, and will therefore suck up any object(s) placed below it. The vacuum also travels through Portals, and can therefore be used to to dispatch Turrets and other obstacles in multiple locations. The vacuum is also powerful enough to remove Panels from walls in some scenarios.

Aside from its ability to remove obstacles, it is presumed that the player would also have interacted with the Vents in order to move about rapidly, or to transport Weighted Storage Cubes or other such objects to other locations.
