A user authentication apparatus trains a user authentication model by using biometric data of a user which was used in previous user authentication as training data, and performs user authentication by using the trained user authentication model.

Apparatus and method of performing user authentication

An aerosol generating device includes a heater for heating an aerosol generating material, a battery for supplying power to the heater, and a controller, and reduces unnecessary power consumption by detecting the moment of actual use of the aerosol generating device and resetting or updating the baseline of a puff sensor only for such actual use.

Aerosol generating device and operation method thereof

An aerosol generating device includes a cartridge configured to generate aerosol from an aerosol generating material; and a main body comprising an accommodation space for accommodating the cartridge, wherein an airflow passage for introducing external air is formed between a wall of the main body adjoining the accommodation space and a wall of the cartridge when the cartridge is accommodated in the accommodation space of the main body.

Aerosol generating device

An atomizer includes a liquid delivery element configured to absorb an aerosol generating material of a liquid storage and a wire configured to heat the aerosol generating material and wound on a surface of the liquid delivery element, wherein the wire is wound in a spiral shape such that coils of the wire are spaced apart from each other by a certain distance on the surface of the liquid delivery element, one of end portions of the wire is in contact with a first portion of the surface of the liquid delivery element, and the other one of the end portions of the wire is in contact with a second portion of the surface of the liquid delivery element.

Atomizer and cartridge including the same

A cartridge for mounting on a main body of an aerosol generating device includes: a liquid storage extending in a longitudinal direction of the cartridge to form an outer wall of the cartridge, the liquid storage including a space accommodating a liquid composition therein; a heater that heats the liquid composition accommodated in the liquid storage to generate an aerosol; and a coupling protrusion including an elastic material, the coupling protrusion protruding from an outer surface of the liquid storage and coupling the main body to the cartridge.

Cartridge and aerosol generating device including the same

An aerosol generating device includes a first heater for heating a liquid composition accommodated in a liquid storage of a vaporizer, a puff sensor detecting a pressure change within the aerosol generating device, and a controller. The aerosol generating device may determine a puff pattern including a plurality of sections, based on a signal received from the puff sensor. In addition, the aerosol generating device may control an operation of the first heater, based on states of the plurality of sections.

Aerosol generating device and method of controlling the same

According to an embodiment, there is provided an aerosol generating apparatus including a case into which a cigarette including an electromagnetic inductor is insertable, a heating unit configured to heat the cigarette, a detector that includes a coil and measures a current characteristic value of a current flowing through the coil according to predetermined time information, and a controller that controls operation of the heating unit by comparing the current characteristic value measured by the detector with a predetermined reference current characteristic value, wherein the reference current characteristic value is set based on at least one current characteristic value measured by the detector.

Aerosol generating apparatus and operation method of the same

A cartridge includes a storage configured to store an aerosol generating material; a heater configured to heat the aerosol generating material to generate aerosol; and at least one terminal configured to transfer power from an external battery to the heater and comprising a conductive structure surrounding a wire connected to the heater, wherein the conductive structure takes a compressed form in which the wire is in contact with the conductive structure.

A cartridge for an aerosol generating device includes a cartridge for an aerosol generating device includes a liquid storage provided with a space storing a liquid composition that is atomized by a heater to generate an aerosol and including an open end portion of one side sealed by a sealing means to prevent leakage of the liquid composition stored in the space; a mouthpiece coupled in a direction covering the open end portion of the liquid storage and including a discharge hole through which the aerosol generated from the liquid composition stored in the liquid storage is discharged to an outside; and a flavor capsule provided in a space between the open end portion of the one side of the liquid storage hidden by coupling of the liquid storage and the mouthpiece and the sealing means and crushed due to pressure from a user to discharge a flavoring agent.
