Abstract (en)
[origin: EP4197361A1] This application provides an aerosol-generation device, and a method and system thereof. The aerosol-generation device includes a housing, having an opening; a cavity, configured to receive or remove an aerosol-generation product through the opening; a heater, configured to heat at least a part of the aerosol-generation product received in the cavity to generate an aerosol for inhalation; a color detection apparatus, configured to emit light to the cavity and detect reflection of the light to generate a color signal; and a controller, configured to obtain the color signal generated by the color detection apparatus, and generate a control signal according to the color signal to control operation of the heater. This application detects the insertion or removal of the aerosol-generation product into or from the cavity through the color detection apparatus, and then controls operation of the heater, which has a lower cost, simplifies the operation of the aerosol-generation device, and improves user experience.
