Proof wristband measures your blood alcohol level while you’re drinking


Proof wristband measures your blood alcohol level while you’re drinking Milo Sensors recently unveiled its Proof wristband. Proof is a wristband which monitors your blood alcohol content by tracking chemicals in your perspiration. The band uses disposable cartridges which can track blood alcohol levels for over 12 hours. The device then connects to a user’s phone using Bluetooth, powered by a rechargeable battery which provides up to four days of usage. It is due for release in 2017. Would be interesting to use something like this and test out drinking different drinks over a period of an evening and then comparing it with friends. Most drinking "estimates" are based on standard drinks and standard bodies, and what is not taken into account is individual differences. With something like this reading actual outputs over a period of time, it could be really interesting and a good way to manage your "evening". Of course we also need to know the price of those cartridges.... but if you don't use it every night, and consider the cost of a drunken driving charge, hopefully it is reasonable.
