- The purifier has smart sensors to know where you are in the room
- There are no privacy concerns — everything is processed on the device
- It’s priced at $850/£550 (around AU$1,190)
Dyson has launched what could be its smartest air purifier yet, the Dyson Find+Follow Purifier Cool. As the name suggests, it’s a purifier that knows where you are and tracks your movements, directing the air where you are and eventually turning off when you leave the room.
This doesn’t just work for solo users. It can detect multiple people in the same room, automatically adjusting its oscillation to share cooling “efficiently and evenly.” By directing the air towards people rather than just the room, the Dyson Find+Follow Purifier Cool should be more energy efficient than less smart devices.
Dyson Find+Follow Purifier Cool: key details and prices
It’s worth noting that, like similar Dysons, this is a fan rather than an air conditioner, so it doesn’t refrigerate the air; It moves it very well. If you’re looking for a portable air conditioner, we’ve rounded up the best options in stock here.
In addition to people detection, the Dyson Find+Follow Purifier Cool has generally high specifications. Its K-Carbon + HEPA filtration captures 99.97% of ultrafine particles as small as 0.3 microns and promises to capture 50% more NO₂ than competing purifiers. It is fully sealed to HEPA H13 standard and has automatic detection of PM2.5, PM10, VOCs, NO₂ and formaldehyde.
As always with Dyson, the device is very impressive but the price is quite high, especially in the United States – although it is a little more affordable than initially advertised. The press release listed the price as $894.99, but it’s currently available on Dyson.com for a slightly less scary $849.99 / £549.99. This equates to around AU$1,190, but it’s currently not listed on Dyson’s Australian website.
