Abstract
Dust mitigation techniques are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a first component coupled in a movable relationship with a second component. The first component or the second component includes a recess accessible through an aperture. The apparatus also includes a brush disposed at the aperture and comprising fibers configured to prevent intrusion of dust into the recess. The apparatus also includes a vibration device configured to deliver a vibrational stimulus to the brush, wherein the vibration device activates a dust collection mode in response to a first movement of the first component relative to the second component and activates a dust shedding mode in response to a second movement of the first component relative to the second component.
