Dyson Institute of Engineering and Technology 2022 Graduation Celebration

Speaking at the Dyson Institute of Engineering and Technology 2022 graduation celebration, Sir James Dyson encouraged graduates to never lose their curiosity. He reflected on how global events of the past four years, from pandemic to war, had shaped them uniquely and with a belief that they were all the stronger for it, having studied and worked alongside Dyson engineers.“We live in tumultuous times. During your time at Dyson, the scale of the political, and global events unfolding, has been seismic. Crosswinds, of a type not seen in my lifetime, have attempted to blow us off course at every juncture. Not just us - similar forces have affected almost every business globally. Through all of this upheaval you have been working and studying. Learning and doing. For you it is now ‘normal’ and you are all-the-stronger for it.” For a further glimpse at the Dyson Institute of Engineering and Technology, as well as the 2022 Graduation Celebration, read the full Dyson Institute of Engineering a

Discover how we've re-engineered the Dyson Airwrap™ multi-styler attachmentsHAIR CARE

When we launched the Dyson Airwrap™ multi-styler in 2018, it revolutionised styling. Since then, we've refined our attachment technology, to improve usability, versatility and performance.One of our biggest achievements with these attachments is how effective and intuitive they are to use. This is a result of the optimised geometry and refined engineering inside them.With the Airwrap™ barrels, we focused on finding a way to achieve both directions of curl on one barrel, to give you optimal control and styling, in an easy-to-use way.The brush attachment has been re-engineered with Enhanced Coanda airflow. On the new design we've got these vanes which turn and guide the flow. This gives you precision Coanda airflow for controlled style and alignment.The Coanda smoothing dryer now has two modes. Firstly, it has the Drying mode. You can then switch into Smoothing mode. This uses the Coanda effect to sort the hair and reduce the flyaways*, giving you a nice, smooth finish.All of these attac

Inside the filtration system of Dyson's air-purifying headphones

Dyson's two-stage, sealed filtration system removes city fumes, viruses and 99% of ultrafine pollutants from the air you breathe.¹ This was a spectacular challenge. To take a huge filter and decrease its – without compromising on performance – is not easy. We had to go right back to the drawing board. But as a result, our activated carbon filter absorbs volatile organic compounds and gases found in cities and an electrostatic filter captures viruses and 99.95% of city pollutants and allergens, down to 0.1 microns.¹ From home to city, Dyson engineers continue to pioneer in the filtration space.Watch the ‘Inside the filtration system of Dyson's air-purifying headphones’ video by selecting the corresponding link.

How the Dyson-engineered contact-free visor works

The visor on Dyson's latest air-purifying headphones channels a continuous stream of purified air to your nose and mouth, without touching your face. There were no established ways of measuring what we were trying to measure. So Dyson engineers made an imitation human head with imitation human lungs to map the behaviour of clean air accurately. So they knew when used in real life, it would work as intended.Watch the ‘How the Dyson-engineered contact-free visor works’ video by selecting the corresponding link.

Dealing with household dust. How Dyson engineers tackle the invisible threats in our homes.

Sometimes the problems we tackle are those we can’t see. Allergens, dust mites, mould spores, pet dander, viruses and bacteria are all present in the dust in our homes, invisible to the naked eye.Jonathan McGaughey, Separation Systems Engineer, talks about how Dyson engineers have developed a system to allow our vacuum cleaners to take real-world dust out of homes and expel clean air back in.Watch the ‘Dealing with household dust.

Dyson studies the science of pet hair, and how to remove it.

Dyson's microbiologists study how bacteria spread from pet hair, helping to develop better ways to trap them. Dyson's design engineers and microbiologists have spent years helping to develop innovative vacuum-cleaning technology. In Dyson laboratories, design engineers use high-speed cameras and Dyson-developed hair-tracking software to better understand how hair behaves in the airflows of our machines. Helping to develop the hair removal technology in Dyson's Motorbar™ cleaner heads, and the Hair screw tool. Also the Dyson Pet groom tool, which can capture loose hairs before they fall around your home. Dyson microbiologists study the bacteria, allergens and pet dander that cling to pet hair, leading to the development of Dyson's fully-sealed filtration system. Helping to limit the spread of potentially harmful microscopic particles around the home.Watch the ‘Dyson studies the science of pet hair, and how to remove it’ video by selecting the corresponding link.

Capturing gaseous pollutant

Traditionally, filtration relates to removing particles from airflow – the job of a HEPA filter. But Dyson engineers understand the components of indoor air, whether in homes or commercial spaces, and have redefined filtration to respond to all the pollution problems indoors – not just some.In addition to the HEPA filtration layer, Dyson purifiers use carbon to absorb gaseous pollution. The activated carbon layer, impregnated with a chemical known as Tris, captures gaseous particles including VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) and oxidising gases such as NO2 (produced by traffic pollution or combustion). Carbon crystals are porous, and like a sponge with water, carbon can absorb gases, odours, domestic fumes and VOCs.To read more about Filtration at Dyson click on our At the core: Filtration link.If you are interested in reading about the common pollutants in the home, visit our ‘What are the common household pollutants?’ article.
