Innovators have responded to the concerns of authorities and parents regarding teen smoking and vaping, especially given the wide popularity of JUUL among teens. The “Fly Sense” vaping detector has so far been sold to 21 school districts across the US and many more are interested in trying out this new technological intervention which can also be helpful in sending alerts about other incidents, such as fighting and bullying.
