A device created by British engineering giant Dyson will be able to help combat dangerous levels of air pollution in homes thanks to a partnership with an Israeli technology company.

The UK firm joined up with Haifa-based company BreezoMeter in developing an app which links directly to Dyson's new Pure Cool Link fan, allowing users to know how the air quality, humidity, temperature and even pollen count around them compares with outdoors.

Dyson's Hugo Wilson, who managed the project's design, said the choice to work with BreezoMeter was "obvious" because "Israel is one of the key technology hubs of the world".

He praised BreezoMeter for its clever use of air quality data gained from thousands of sensors around the world.
