Summary

Imagine driving without a speedometer and still trying to go the speed limit, this is analogous to going out drinking without a Breathalyzer, said the chief operating officer of Ladybug Teknologies, enterprise which developed a machine to measure how much alcohol bar customers have in their bodies.

The legal limit for driving under the influence of alcohol in the U.S. is 0.08 and normally people don’t know exactly how much is, or what is felling with this amount. The ladybug’s machine can say in few seconds if customer can drive or need to call a taxi. However to get reliable results, people have to wait 15 minutes after the last drink to take the test because levels of alcohol can change quickly in our body.

Ladybug also want to launch and app to send the results to customer’s smartphone in order that they can associate a felling with a number of drinks.

However, on the other hand, bar owners don’t like this machine because they are afraid with the possibility of customers stop drinking sooner if they over the limit.
