Philips have unveiled the latest in oral hygiene with the impending release of the world's first USB-powered toothbrush. The gadget which features the USB port will set consumers back ?250 but is being dubbed by the manufacturers as ‘the iPod of toothbrushes’. The Philips DiamondClean HX 9332 which incorporates AirFloss technology, can reach an incredible 31,000 brush strokes per minute, and removes up to 100 per cent more plaque.

這是一個網絡的時代,各種便攜電腦、各種智能手機的問世,讓身處都市的我們“網絡依賴症”愈發嚴重,隨着“蘋果系列”的盛行,山寨iphone5的提前問世,種種跡象告訴我們----“不插電還真不能行”,“插電生活方式”不僅僅體現在電腦以及智能手機的使用上,就連早晨起來第一件事------刷牙都不得不與“電”聯繫起來。近日,飛利浦在英國推出了一款類似現今智能手機,主要充電接頭是USB(和智能手機一樣,也附帶USB轉AC的適配器)的電動牙刷Sonicare DiamondClean,該款智能牙刷售價不菲,高達250英鎊(約合405美元/2600人民幣),因該產品高昂的價格它還被封上:牙刷中的Ipod一美譽。該USB牙刷的工作效率十分驚人,刷動頻率高達每分鐘3萬1000次,號稱可以清除牙齦內100%的污垢。

With five brushing modes and a two-minute timer, the makers promise to improve gum health in as little as 14 days. Furthermore, it has a 30-second interval timer that encourages even brushing and whitens teeth. Users have the added benefit of a ‘charge glass’ for wireless charging that will notify them when the batteries have been fully charged via the USB socket.

而且,設計者將該牙刷設置成2種模式:5分鐘與2分鐘定時模式,廠商聲稱該款牙刷能在2周內改善任何牙齦疾病。牙刷的電動程序中被設置了30秒的間隔時間,還具有美白牙齒的功效。飛利浦稱該電動牙刷適合商旅人士及現代快節奏生活使用。場所包括但不限於:家裏的臺式機/筆記本電腦旁、實驗室以及老闆的辦公室,或者Apple Store。而且,該USB牙刷還具有“充電功能”,在USB接口充電滿格的情況下可以支持“無線刷牙”功能。

While Philips have used the plug on other appliances such as electronic music players, laptops and other bathroom devices, the HX 9332 is the company's first attempt at extending that to toothbrushes. Cosmetic dentist Dr Bill Dorfman remarked: 'Philips Sonicare has taken innovation to a whole new level with AirFloss and DiamondClean. 'As an innovator and entrepreneur, I draw inspiration from brands that use both science and consumer insights to develop new technologies that meet people's needs, and ultimately, improve their lives.'

飛利浦公司這回野心不小,除了“智能牙刷”以外,他們還將出品一系列可以在浴室使用的電子產品。據介紹,該牙刷的具體性能和普通電動牙刷無太大區別,使用2W鋰離子充電電池而非乾電池,牙刷放入充電盒或附帶的杯子中即可充電。刷頭可自行更換成別種類型,擁有智能定時功能。牙醫Dr Bill Dorfman對這款智能牙刷讚不絕口,他說:“飛利浦這回真正地將科技與老百姓的日常生活緊密聯繫了起來,產品完全符合民衆的日常需求,提高了生活質量。”
