While Dyson is best known for its high-quality fans and vacuums, the company has recently expanded into new areas such as lighting with its Lightcycle Morph series and haircare with its Airwrap Styler kits and powerful hairdryers.
Dyson’s latest innovation is its first wearable device that also functions as an air purifier and high-fidelity headphones. The “Dyson Zone™” headpiece delivers immersive sound through ANC over-ear headphones while also directing purified air to the nose and mouth via a contact-free visor.
The Dyson team created the Dyson Zone™ to address common urban issues such as pollution levels and noise, citing unhealthy levels of air pollution in London and other global cities. Precision-engineered compressors housed within the earcups draw air through dual-layer filters, capturing “99% of particle pollution as small as 0.1 microns, such as dust, pollen, and bacteria” as a replacement for traditional contact masks.
The Dyson Zone™ is equipped with an advanced noise cancellation system and neodymium electroacoustic system that deliver wide frequency response, precise left-right balance, low distortion, and rich uninterrupted sound, thanks to extensive listening trials led by Dyson’s audio engineers.
Four air purification modes, three ANC modes, and the option to remove the purification visor and replace it with a standard FFP2-compliant face covering are all adjustable.
Beginning in Spring 2022, the Dyson Zone will be available online and in select Dyson stores around the world. Prices and exact release dates will be announced in the coming months, with a full breakdown and introductory videos available on Dyson’s website.
