Dyson tweeteda statementfrom its father that makes it clear that he ’s serious about this . In fact , he first start mean about it almost 30 years ago . He write :
In 1988 I interpret a paper by the US National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health , tie in the exhaust from Rudolf Christian Karl Diesel engines to premature expiry in laboratory mice and rats . In March 1990 a squad at Dyson began work on a cyclonic filter that could be fitted on a vehicle ’s exhaust organisation to trap particulates .
By 1993 we had develop several working prototypes and evidence an early loop to British television programmeBlue Peter . The squad went on to break a much more sophisticated technology .
To our mortification , nobody at the time was interested in employing our diesel fumes capture system and westopped the project . The diligence said that ‘ disposing ’ of the collected soot was too much of a problem ! Better to breathe it in ?
James Dyson tellsReutersthat he ’s already ramp up a squad of 400 railroad engineer who have been play on battery — that will eventually power the car — for two - and - a - one-half years , and he ’s actively recruiting more talent . At the moment , the company is committing $ 2.7 billion to the car ’s development and it wants to roll something out by 2020 .
Earlier this year , Dyson announced plans to create anAI inquiry facilitylocated in Singapore . With a grow centering on AI , it ’s plausible that Dyson could one mean solar day attempt to vie with ego - driving projects from the ilk of Google and Telsa — but Dyson has so far suggested nothing of the kind , and it ’s possible the company ’s current investment intoautonomous vacuumingwon’t lead to a proper ego - driving gondola .
Other than that , Dyson ’s keeping quiet on detail . “ The undertaking will grow quickly from here but at this stage , we will not release any information , ” he write .
