The Dyson Zone
The Dyson Zone take on air and noise pollution problems in a wholly unique way
How does it work?
The Zone, a pair of noise-canceling Bluetooth headphones with air purification technology built in, thanks to a magnetic face visor.
Why is it needed?
The air purification half of the Zone doesn’t reinvent the wheel for Dyson. Instead, it miniaturizes the company’s existing air filtration technology into a unique form factor. The Zone pulls in air through each earpiece using a pair of tiny compressors. The air is then filtered and piped through the (slightly bizarre-looking) “visor” for the user to breathe in — sans most of the particles and pollutants.
How does it improve life?
The goal of the Zone is to make living in urban spaces more comfortable by attempting to mitigate both air and noise pollution
