The FreshAir system sensors are “capable of detecting specific molecules in tobacco smoke and marijuana smoke,” according to a press release. Typical smoke detectors use light or radiation to detect general particles.

The devices can be plugged into standard outlets and are secured with tamper-proof screws. The devices are Wi-Fi enabled and can connect to a building’s network to connect to FreshAir’s monitoring platform.

Incident reports are timestamped, providing proof to enforce no-smoking policies. Alert history, device information, and additional information can be archived in the account through FreshAir’s mobile app or online portal.
