Are you really ready for the future?
Dyson, famous for its cordless vacuum cleaners, unveils its first air-purifying headphones.
The object includes earphones and in each earphone, compressors to filter the air.
Purified, it is sent to the mouth and nose, with a "visor" system.
After two years of pandemic and with an early spring very conducive to allergies, we really want to believe in the effectiveness of the system and its veracity.

Just a communication stunt?
April Fools?
Questioned by
Le Figaro,
the Dyson company affirms it, all this is very serious.
The Dyson Zone headphones really exist.
The group even reports having devoted six years of research and development to it.
At the beginning, the first pise envisaged was a mouthpiece placed in the mouth, like a frogman.
To walk in the street without triggering general hilarity, there is better.
Aware of the problem and anxious to avoid ridicule, Dyson engineers therefore opted for another option, that of the visor.
The product, for as wacky as it is, may seem believable, because it is advertised by Dyson.
Its founder, James Dyson, likes to tackle everyday problems and solve them.
We owe him bagless vacuum cleaners, bladeless fans, and hand dryer taps.
And, we sometimes forget, but in 1974, James Dyson invented the Ballbarrow, literally wheelbarrow-balloon.
So many products that contributed to the fame of the brilliant British inventor.
Will the Dyson Zone meet the same fate as vacuum cleaners?
We will still have to wait to find out.
Alas (or not) at first, it will not be marketed on the French market.
Only a few countries, including Britain and the United States, will qualify.
And not before 2023.
