Guests report getting billed hundreds of dollars for smoking, based on the readings of an “algorithmic” smoke detector. The sensor manufacturer markets its product as a way for hotels to unlock new revenue streams.

That’s what I’m saying though - it will come down to sworn testimony, and their data from the sensor will likely constitute a preponderance of evidence.
The burden is on the plaintiff, not the defendant. Whomever brings the suit needs to prove that it’s more likely than not that they’re were incorrectly fined.
Since these devices seem to basically be VOC sensors it wouldn’t be that hard to do this.
To a non-technically literate judge/jury. Many people just trust “the data” or “the authority” or “the technology”.
I understand that, but bringing one of these sensors into the courtroom and turning on a Dyson air wrap, spraying hairspray, using baby powder etc. and then comparing the results would show the susceptibility of these to be wrong.
It’s a demonstrably flawed system so you just need to demonstrate the system in action.
