So would this cooling device world best in low humidity -- so that
there is little condensation?

The condensation is easily dealt with, every AC and refrigeration unit
unit in existence today does it already, it's not the major issue.
Cost of operation is.
FWIW - LN is typically used when a very fast flash freeze is required.
It's a simple system - one solenoid, feeds a metering device and an
evaporator ( coil, plate, whatever ). It's applicable when a very
fast high-capacity drop is required. Also in cryo work, of course,
but that's a different application entirely, where the subject is
likely to exposed directly to the LN.

What does LN stand for?

Pretty much anything, as long as you feed it right :-0
Liquid Nitrogen.

Why, yes, but you also need low CO2, low oxygen and low nitrogen
in the room "air". What you are descibing, actually, is called
a "cryopump". It will end up condensing not only the water in
the air, but ALL the air! CO2 will freeze onto the coils, and
Oxygen and Nitrogen will condense and drip onto the floor,
thereby making puddles of liquid nitrogen and oxygen on the
floor. Since the nitrogen will just be cooled to saturation, it
will disappear immediately, leaving puddles of liquid Oxygen
behind. If you have anything but ceramic floors, such as
hardwood, vinyl tile, etc. you will likely have a violent
explosion rather quickly. Liquid oxygen is basically gaseous
oxygen compressed 1000 x, and therefore an extremely powerful
oxidizer.
Why cool something to 77 K to cool off a human body at 310 K.
Aside from the safety aspects of having something so dangerously
cold around, it can't be efficient. And, you won't get your
purely "radiant cooling", there will be HUGE sheets of insanely
cold air falling off the cold plates and collecting on the
floor. Within minutes, the room will have a thermal divide,
with totally frigid air from the floor to the bottom of the cold
plate.
