Story summary

Dyson launched the CameraJet toothbrush in the United Kingdom for £419.99, including a camera, AI and rinse jet.
Six years and 661 engineers built a 100k-pixel camera scanning 28 images per second to find gaps.
AI triggers a conical mouth-rinse burst within 100 ms of gap detection using a 12.5 ml anti-gravity tank.
Dyson claims variable sonic oscillation cuts plaque up to 69 % more than leading electric brushes.

History

Historical Context

After Max Braun expanded from radios to consumer appliances in the 1950s, the company launched its first electric shaver in 1951 and went public as Braun AG in 1962, later becoming a Gillette subsidiary in 1967. Building on that personal-care legacy, Braun’s 1960 Oral-B Model 1000 marked the first mass-market electric toothbrush, a lineage continued by Dyson’s 2024 CameraJet smart brush.
