DEVICE

CReSSmicro handheld topography device

The CReSS micro device represents the state-of-the-art technology for measurements of ambulatory puff topography taken in the smoker's natural environment. Although all topography measurements are limited, at least to some degree, by the artificial act of smoking while using a device, or smoking through a mouthpiece, this small, lightweight and portable device is easy to use outside of the laboratory setting to capture more naturalistic smoking behavior and allows for less intrusion from the research team and research environment.
