Dyson Launches $499 CameraJet Toothbrush With AI Flossing and 100,000-Pixel Camera

3 articles · Updated · The Verge · Sep 1

Summary

  • $499 buys Dyson’s new CameraJet, an electric toothbrush that livestreams inside the mouth and automatically sprays mouthwash between teeth while brushing.
  • A 100,000-pixel camera and AI analyze 28 live images a second; within 100 milliseconds of spotting a gap, the brush fires a cone-shaped mouthwash blast.
  • Dyson says the wider, lower-pressure spray is gentler on enamel and gums than typical water flossers, while the brush head oscillates nearly 1,000 times per second.
  • Available now in ceramic blue and pink, the device uses RFID-tagged replacement heads and a dock that refills its 12.5ml mouthwash tank in three seconds.
  • The launch pushes Dyson further into personal care, with the company also planning non-foaming toothpaste and low-foaming mouthwash to improve the camera’s view.
