AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing aerosol supply systems, such as electronic cigarettes, are not easily distinguishable for persons with visual impairments or in low visibility situations, leading to challenges in identifying suitable consumables.

Method used

Incorporation of sensors to determine the properties of consumables within the aerosol supply system, including an optical sensor to sense the outer surface of the consumable and determine its characteristics, and a mechanism to trigger operations based on the cover movement.

Benefits of technology

Enhances the efficiency of the aerosol supply system by allowing accurate identification and operation based on consumable properties, improving usability for visually impaired users and in reduced visibility conditions.

Abstract

We provide an aerosol supply system for generating aerosols. [Solution] An aerosol supply system 1 for generating an aerosol, comprising a consumable 2 and an aerosol supply device 4 configured to receive the consumable. The aerosol supply device includes a sensor 101 for sensing a portion of the consumable when the consumable is received by the aerosol supply device, the portion 71 including the outer surface 73 of the consumable. The sensor is configured to output sensor data, and the aerosol supply device is configured to use the sensor data to determine predetermined characteristics of the consumable, such as the composition of the aerosolizable material inside the consumable or the remaining amount of aerosolizable material inside the consumable.
