US$500 Dyson toothbrush puts a 100,000-pixel camera in your mouth so you can jet wash your teeth

Built-in camera and strobe enable Dyson toothbrush to precisely target plaque between teeth

US$500 Dyson toothbrush puts a 100,000-pixel camera in your mouth so you can jet wash your teeth

Dyson, the renowned English tech company, has introduced a toothbrush called CameraJet, equipped with a camera boasting 100,000 pixels and a macro lens. This remarkable device uses Gap Optical Targeting technology to deliver jets of liquid precisely between teeth, analyzing 28 images per second to detect and track gaps. Coupled with AI algorithms, a 257Hz stroboscopic light, and advanced brushing techniques, CameraJet aims to revolutionize oral hygiene.

The company's founder, James Dyson, emphasized the significance of the camera's gap-targeting capability, asserting that it sets the CameraJet apart from other toothbrushes. However, the CameraJet is not the first product to attempt merging toothbrushes with cameras; Onvi's Prophix Video Toothbrush, unveiled in 2016, faced challenges in hitting the market.

As the CameraJet prepares to enter the market, it remains to be seen how well it will perform against established premium toothbrushes, such as Oral-B's iO brushes.
