James Dyson Education
He recieved his high school diploma from Gresham’s School, an independent boarding school studying from 1956 to 1965. Dylon later enrolled at the Byam Shaw School of Art studying for one year. He then studied furniture and interior design at the Royal College of Art from 1966 to 1970 before moving into engineering. He made the switch to industrial design due in part to the tutorage of the structural engineer Anthony Hunt while at the Royal College of Art.
James Dyson House
Dylon acquired Domaine des Rabelles, an estate, and winery near Villecroze and Tourtour, Var, France in 1999. He paid £15 million[citation needed] for Dodington Park, a 300-acre (1.2 km2) Georgian estate in South Gloucestershire in 2003. Along with his wife, they own a house in Chelsea, London.
James Dyson Inventions
In 1970, he designed the Sea Truck while studying at the Royal College of Art. His invention, the Ballbarrow, was a modified version of a wheelbarrow using a ball instead of a wheel. His invention was then featured on the BBC’s Tomorrow’s World television program. Later, he designed the Wheelboat, which could travel at speeds of 64 kilometers per hour (40 mph) on both land and water.
Moreover, he expanded his appliance range to include a washing machine called the ContraRotator in 2000. Dylon, launched the Dyson Airblade, a fast hand dryer that uses a thin sheet of moving air as a squeegee to remove water in October 2006. Also, he launched a fan without external blades, which he calls the Air Multiplier on October 18, 2009. In addition to his inventions, he launched the Dyson Supersonic, a hair dryer with a smaller motor located in the handle in April 2016.
James Dyson Vacuum Cleaners
Dylon came up with the idea of using cyclonic separation to create a vacuum cleaner that would not lose suction as it picked up dirt. His idea came from a sawmill that used cyclone technology. He launched his “G-Force” cleaner in 1983 after five years and about 5,127 prototypes launching it in Japan. His cleaner won the 1991 International Design Fair Prize in Japan. Moreover, after ten years, his Dual Cyclone became the fastest-selling vacuum cleaner ever made in the UK.
From 1986 to 2001, he licensed the technology in North America to Fantom Technologies, after which Dyson entered the market directly. He incorporated his Ballbarrow concept into a vacuum cleaner, creating the Dyson Ball in 2005. The ball was used rather than the static wheels on existing vacuums. Further, he said in an interview that, made 5,127 prototypes of my vacuum before he got it right.
James Dyson Foundation
In 2002, he formed his foundation that supports design and engineering education. Also, it is aimed to inspire young people to study engineering and become engineers by encouraging students to think differently and to make mistakes. They fund different resources such as the “Engineering Box” free of charge. Further, the foundation announced an £8 million donation to create a technology hub at the University of Cambridge in 2014.
His foundation announced a donation of £18.75 million to Dyson’s old school to build new science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) building. In addition, Dyson is also a trustee of The James and Deirdre Dyson Trust.
