Most notably, the new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dyson.com\/vacuum-cleaners\/sticks\/dyson-v15-stick\/overview\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><span id=\"urn:local-text-annotation-0e9mzg26glntysjsj0g6i3ceze361px5\" class=\"textannotation disambiguated wl-thing\" itemid=\"local-entity-0ypxxiamtlxddqpxzslz8lrw6byi1r4p\">V15 Detect<\/span><\/a> packs a green laser to help you see just how grimy your floors are.<\/p>\n<p>While plenty of vacuums already use LEDs to help you see dirt on your floor, Dyson is trying to one-up everyone by including a much cooler-sounding green laser instead (only available on the \u2018Fluffy\u2019 cleaner head meant for hard floors). The laser is precisely angled at 1.5 degrees and 7.2mm off the ground to make dust as visible as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Why green, you ask? Dyson says it provides the best contrast. Which I guess makes sense; a white LED would be hard to see on a light-colored surface, but I\u2019ve never seen anyone with bright green floors.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fN7KJ46DHjU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen>[embedded content]<\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s not only the light show that gives you a better idea of how clean your floors actually are. The vacuum also includes a new acoustic piezo sensor that actually tells you how much dust you\u2019re picking up. This sensor also allows the vacuum to increase suction when it comes across a large amount of dust. Once levels stabilize, the vacuum\u2019s suction will return to normal.<\/p>\n<p>Dyson goes so far as to show a breakdown of the dust size and quantity on the vacuum\u2019s LCD screen. That\u2019s not something I ever thought I\u2019d want to know, but it\u2019s still pretty cool considering how accurate the sensor claims to be; Dyson says the sensor can detect particles as small as 10 microns \u2014 the size of some bacteria.<\/p>\n<p><figure class=\"post-image post-mediaBleed aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1344206 lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/Snag_48c1c83.png\" alt width=\"1490\" height=\"1396\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1490px) 100vw, 1490px\" data-lazy=\"true\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/Snag_48c1c83.png 1490w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/Snag_48c1c83-224x210.png 224w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/Snag_48c1c83-288x270.png 288w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/Snag_48c1c83-144x135.png 144w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/Snag_48c1c83-796x746.png 796w\"><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p>Aside from letting you know how grimy your floors are with scientific precision, Dyson claims its new vacuum accessories address probably the most annoying problem with vacuum cleaners all around: hair getting tangled in the brush bar.<\/p>\n<p>For its new mini-motorized brush head \u2014 meant for&nbsp;cleaning furniture and the like \u2014 the company developed a new conical brush bar that is able to spiral hair and fur off into the dust bin rather than allowing it to get tangled and build up over time.<\/p>\n<p><em>[Read more:&nbsp;<span dir=\"auto\"><a class=\"c-link c-message_attachment__title_link\" href=\"https:\/\/thenextweb.com\/dutch-disruptors\/2021\/03\/23\/how-to-use-ai-to-better-serve-your-customers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-qa=\"message_attachment_title_link\">How to use AI to better serve your customers<\/a>]<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p>For its larger brush bar, Dyson is instead using essentially what amounts to a fancy hair comb to collect hair and prevent it from tangling around the brush bar.<\/p>\n<p>But wait, there\u2019s more!

Who woulda thunk it!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>This version differentiates itself from the other models in two key ways: It can lie flat to the ground to clean small nooks and crannies, and it comes with a cleaning head that can move in any-direction (hence the \u2018Omni-glide\u2019). That means that instead of the usual push-pull-turn of a typical vacuum, you can sweep in any direction to your heart\u2019s content.<\/p>\n<p>In order to lie flat, the Omni-glide has a slim chassis and gets rid of the&nbsp;vertical handle for a long bar instead. This allows the vacuum to get very low to the ground and easily slide under couches and the like; useful for a small apartment in which moving the couch isn\u2019t an option.<\/p>\n<p>Also, in another big change for Dyson, the vacuum uses a simple on-off power button instead of the usual press-and-hold trigger. The big caveat to all this is that the vacuum is only rated to last 20 minutes on a charge, it doesn\u2019t come with brush head intended for rugs or carpets, and it doesn\u2019t have any of the V15\u2019s fancy new features. But it\u2019s also a lot cheaper.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dyson.com\/vacuum-cleaners\/cordless-stick-vacuums\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Dyson V15 Detect<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dyson.com\/vacuum-cleaners\/hard-floor\/omni-glide\/overview\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Omni-glide<\/a> are available to order from Dyson.com beginning today.
