简要总结
A multi-center human factors validation study to demonstrate the function of the IKE Bluetooth system on a chip (SoC) and mobile applications ability to age-gate a device, accurately identify an individuals age, race/ethnicity, and gender, and asses the usability of the IKE System.
详细描述
Study Objectives:
IKE developed a smartphone application which identifies and age-verifies users and works in conjunction with a Bluetooth low energy (BLE) chip to restrict connecting to and activating a device by a users age. The intention is to use this in ENDs devices, and therefore the age limit was set to 21 years. This feature is generally referred to as "age-gating."
The purpose of the study is to:
- Generally establish the ability of individuals to successfully download and use the IKE application
- Confirm the identification and age-verification application works effectively to prevent those under 21 from enabling the IKE application
- Confirm the identification and age-verification application works effectively to allow those 21 years of age or older to enable the IKE application
- Establish that only individual over 21 years of age is able to connect a device to the IKE application via Bluetooth
Upon successful Bluetooth connection to the device via the IKE application:
