Each sensor, which is about the size of a saucer, retails for about $2,000. It is usually placed overhead in toilets, classrooms or offices. Schools in the United States have placed similar devices in bathrooms, which have little adult supervision. The device monitors 16 data points including particulates, carbon monoxide and the number of people in the room. It is able to monitor the quality of air and detect dangerous vaping chemicals. When triggered, Halo sensors send an alert via SMS to a security control centre or teachers, who can then look around for e-vaporisers and the offending students.
