    Abstract: An aerosol-generating device for generating an aerosol from an aerosol-forming substrate, is configured to generate the aerosol during a usage session. The aerosol-generating device comprises a light emitting indicator having at least one light emitting unit and no more than two light emitting units and a controller. The light emitting indicator is configured to display any one of at least four different indication modes during the usage session. The controller is configured to control the light emitting indicator to display any one of the at least four indication modes to indicate progress of the usage session.

    Abstract: There is provided an aerosol-generating device (10; 210) comprising a housing (12; 212) comprising a first housing portion (14; 214) and a second housing portion (16; 216). The first housing portion (14; 214) defines a chamber (32) for receiving an aerosol-forming substrate. The second housing portion (16; 216) is configured for removable attachment to the first housing portion (14; 214). The aerosol-generating device (10; 210) also comprises an electric heater (22) positioned within the first housing portion (14; 214). The aerosol-generating device (10; 210) also comprises a power supply (20) positioned within the second housing portion (16; 216). The aerosol-generating device (10; 210) also comprises a controller (18) positioned within the first housing portion (14; 214), wherein the controller (18) is configured to control a supply of power from the power supply (20) to the electric heater (22) when the second housing portion (16; 216) is attached to the first housing portion (14; 214).

    Abstract: An aerosol-generating device is disclosed for heating an aerosol-forming substrate to generate an inhalable aerosol during a usage session. The aerosol-generating device comprises control electronics and an outer lighting array partially or wholly surrounding an inner lighting array. The control electronics are coupled to the outer and inner lighting arrays. The control electronics are configured to: i) selectively activate one of the outer and inner lighting arrays to generate a first predetermined light emission conveying first data indicative of a state of the aerosol-generating device; and ii) selectively activate the other of the outer and inner lighting arrays to generate a second predetermined light emission conveying second data indicative of a state of the aerosol-generating device. The first data and the second data are different from one another.

    Abstract: An aerosol-generating rod (10) for producing an inhalable aerosol upon heating comprises: a first aerosol-generating segment (12) comprising a first aerosol-generating substrate, wherein the first aerosol-generating substrate comprises a tobacco material and an aerosol former; a second aerosol-generating segment (14) at a location upstream of the first aerosol-generating segment; and a wrapper (22) circumscribing at least the first aerosol-generating segment and the second aerosol-generating segment. The second aerosol-generating segment (14)comprises a plug of a porous substrate. At least a core portion (24) of the plug comprises an aerosol-generating medium or a flavourant or both. A peripheral portion (26) of the plug (18) surrounding the core portion (24) is substantially free of aerosol-generating medium or flavourant. The aerosol-generating rod provides satisfactory aerosol delivery at lower temperatures, countering the "cold puff" or "empty puff" effect.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to an electrically operated aerosol-generating device for generating an aerosol. The device comprises an air path which extends through the device and is configured to support an airflow in the device. The device further comprises a sound generating member which is arranged in fluid communication with the air path and configured to generate sound caused by an airflow passing the sound generating member in use of the device when a user takes a puff. The device further comprises a puff detector comprising a vibration sensor. The vibration sensor is fluidly separated from the air path and configured to detect the sound propagating from the sound generating member to the vibration sensor. The invention further relates to an aerosol-generating system comprising such a device and an aerosol-generating article comprising the aerosol-forming substrate.
