Ike Tech 是 Ispire Technology 与 Chemular 的合作项目，声称可满足美国食品药品监督管理局在2026年3月发布的草案指南要求，即在设备端对调味电子烟进行年龄核验。当前美国市场大量被来自海外的廉价一次性电子烟淹没，这类产品监管不足，含有镍、铅等有害成分的风险更高。该系统计划使用相机扫描身份证并采集人脸视频，在区块链化流程中将结果转为匿名令牌，再通过蓝牙向设备发送解锁信号；其称单次验证约1.5分钟（约90秒）。

Michael Wang 表示，此方案可阻止未成年人、推动调味电子烟在美国重获监管批准，而 Juul、British American Tobacco 与 Altria 等大公司过去多年也在研发年龄门禁。UCSF 烟草控制研究负责人 Stanton Glantz 指出，年龄核验技术长期未被证明有效，他认为此方案仍有监管盲点：已认证的成年人可在身边与他人共用同一设备而无需再次核验。Glantz 还批评依赖蓝牙开启设备的控制过于脆弱，认为每种技术修补都可能被绕过。

Ike Tech 宣称年龄核验成功率为100%，并称与FDA会见时获得“holy grail”表述。上市时间表和单支电子烟芯片成本尚未透明，虽然 Wang 透露2026年会出现更明确的审批与授权进展。他也计划加入禁飞区/校园等地理围栏，并未来扩展到指纹识别和其他产品类别。Wang 仍坚持电子烟是更安全的尼古丁摄入方式，但 Glantz 强调“没有健康电子烟”存在，尼古丁并非无害，且烟雾化产生的超细颗粒和精准控量“吸入拓扑”会放大成瘾与心血管、神经系统风险；因此即便年龄核验完美，也不能消除根本性健康争议。

Ike Tech, a partnership of Ispire Technology and Chemular, says it can satisfy the FDA’s March 2026 draft guideline that flavored e-cigarettes in the U.S. should pass age verification on the device itself. The U.S. market is currently flooded with cheap disposable vapes from overseas, and insufficiently regulated products raise risks from contaminants such as nickel and lead. Its design scans ID and a face video, converts identity into anonymized tokens through blockchain-linked logic, and unlocks a cartridge via Bluetooth; the one-time check is said to take about 1.5 minutes (about 90 seconds).

Michael Wang says this could block minors and revive approval pathways for flavored devices, while major firms including Juul, British American Tobacco, and Altria have pursued age-gating for years. Stanton Glantz of UCSF’s tobacco-control center argues age checks have long failed in practice and notes this model still permits risk: a verified adult can share the vape with nearby users without re-checking. He also criticizes Bluetooth-dependent control because any technical fix usually has a workaround.

Ike Tech claims a 100 percent verification success rate and says FDA staff reportedly called it the “holy grail.” Time to market and per-cartridge cost remain unclear, though Wang expects clearer approval signals and licensing activity in 2026. He plans future updates like geo-fencing near schools or airplanes and expansion to fingerprint readers and other product categories. Wang still describes e-cigarettes as a relatively safer nicotine route, but Glantz rejects that, saying nicotine is not harmless and ultrafine particles from vapor plus controlled dosing (“smoking topography”) increase addiction and cardiovascular and nervous-system risks; therefore even perfect age verification does not solve the core health problem.
