The popular home electronics brand Dyson has taken its first step into wearable technology by releasing the Dyson Zone, a pair of noise-canceling, high-fidelity over-ear headphones that give immersive sound to the ears while also delivering purified airflow to the nose and mouth.&nbsp;The Dyson Zone air-purifying headphones are the culmination of more than a decade of research and development into air quality and noise pollution challenges in cities.&nbsp;"Air pollution is a global problem – it affects us everywhere we go. In our homes, at school, at work and as we travel, whether on foot, on a bike or by public or private transport. The Dyson Zone™ purifies the air you breathe on the move. It delivers a plume of fresh air without touching your face, using high-performance filters and two miniaturised air pumps. After six years in development, we’re excited to deliver pure air and pure audio, anywhere,” <a href="https://www.dyson.com.sg/newsroom/dyson-zone-announcement">said Jake Dyson</a>, son of famous inventor and founder James Dyson.

During its development period, the Dyson Zone air-purifying headphones had undergone significant changes with over&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dyson.com/wearables/dyson-zone-air-purifying-headphones/announcement">500 prototypes made over 6 years</a>. The original prototype had a snorkel-like mouthpiece paired with a backpack to hold the motor to operate the air-purification system. Since then, the snorkel-like mouthpiece evolved into a contact-less visor that delivers fresh air without full-face contact.Image credit: Dyson #Dyson #DysonZone #Technology #AirPurifier #Headphones
