Patent ID: 6877636

Claim:
A method of discharging an aerosolized fluid from an aerosol can to an ambient environment, comprising the steps of: fluidly coupling a solenoid valve of an aerosol release device with a discharge valve on said aerosol can; determining a duration of a first release period of the aerosolized fluid from the aerosol can; actuating said solenoid valve using an electronic controller to thereby release the aerosolized fluid to the ambient environment for said duration of said first release period; determining a duration of a second release period of the aerosolized fluid from the aerosol can, said duration of said second release period being randomly varied to avoid user habituation of the aerosolized fluid; and actuating said solenoid valve using said electronic controller to thereby release the aerosolized fluid to the ambient environment for said duration of said second release period.
