Maybe there is some new technology, but from what I know of smoke and trace gas detectors, which I've built a few, the only thing that can detect vapes, reflective laser sensors, are so sensitive that they will detect a high enough concentration of poop particles in the air.

They are likely installing fart detectors in school bathrooms, that cages kids...

That's what I was thinking. Even a hot shower can set off a shitty smoke detector. Anything sensitive enough to catch vaping is going to go off constantly.

Although a camera with "AI" can probably recognize it.
