Rising asset and stock values combined with inflation have pushed the wealth threshold for America's top 10% higher, according to new data cited in the report. The analysis suggests that while more Americans are becoming millionaires, gains at the very top of the wealth ladder are outpacing those in the middle.
Scientists used chemical vapor deposition to grow atomically aligned 1H-stacked bilayers of molybdenum disulfide, a two-dimensional semiconductor. Unlike conventional bilayer MoS2, which typically shifts to an indirect band gap, this stacking arrangement preserves a direct band gap and shows stronger light emission and valley polarization than standard bilayers, according to the study published in Nature.
Dyson launched its CameraJet toothbrush, a $499 device combining a camera-guided water flosser with brushing, at a Paris event in early September, then began selling it in US stores on September 8. Within a day, customers reported water leaking into the device's battery compartment, and the product has since become unavailable for purchase, with Dyson declining to explain why.
At an event near IFA, Dyson unveiled the CameraJet, a combined toothbrush and water flosser equipped with a built-in camera that captures 28 images per second to locate gaps between teeth and gums. Engadget's Mat Smith tried the device on fake teeth at the show, since testing it on real mouths wasn't feasible at a trade event, and found it could complete multiple passes without refilling its notably small water tank.
Gap is entering the handbag market with a new collection called GapBag, designed by Reed Krakoff, the former creative leader at Coach. The line reimagines Gap's denim and fleece staples as totes, crossbodies, shoulder bags and smaller accessories, launching online and in select North American stores on September 8.
James Dyson introduced the Dyson CameraJet in Paris, a toothbrush equipped with a 100k pixel macro lens camera and machine learning that detects gaps between teeth in real time. The device uses this data to fire precision jets of mouthrinse into those gaps while also brushing with variable sonic oscillation designed to keep bristles moving against tooth surfaces.
Dyson has unveiled the CameraJet, a $499 toothbrush that uses a tiny built-in camera and an AI system called Gap Optical Targeting to spot gaps between teeth in real time. The device then fires a targeted burst of mouthrinse into those gaps to dislodge plaque, while an accompanying app shows coverage maps and brushing feedback without storing any images. The product is the result of a six-year collaboration between hundreds of Dyson engineers and dental professionals, including researchers at the National University of Singapore.
Dyson has unveiled the CameraJet, a $500 toothbrush that combines brushing, camera-guided gap detection, and water-jet flossing in one device. A tiny 0.1-megapixel lens under the brush head works with machine learning trained on 470,000 dental images to spot gaps between teeth and fire small bursts of fluid to floss them in real time. A companion MyDyson app lets users view their mouth live, get brushing feedback, and adjust intensity and jetting modes, though Dyson says no images are stored.
Dyson has introduced the CameraJet, an electric toothbrush that combines bristles with an integrated water flosser guided by a tiny embedded camera. The camera captures 28 images per second to detect gaps between teeth and fires a cone-shaped jet of rinse into them within 100 milliseconds, using a machine-learning model trained on roughly 470,000 dental images gathered over six years of development.
Gap Inc. has appointed retail veteran Michael Francis to lead Old Navy, its largest brand by revenue. Francis previously helped shape Target's low-cost, design-forward strategy in the 2000s, and Gap is betting his experience can revive Old Navy at a moment when shoppers are especially price-sensitive.
Gap Inc. announced that customer chief Michael Francis will replace Haio Barbeito as Old Navy's CEO starting in November, part of an ongoing effort to revive the struggling brand. The announcement came alongside Gap's mixed second-quarter results, which beat earnings estimates but missed on revenue, sending shares up more than 16% in after-hours trading.
