The BACtrack 'Skyn' Tracks Your BAC Level as You Enjoy Libations
Michael Hemsworth — May 23, 2016 — Lifestyle
The BACtrack 'Skyn' is a new wearable device designed to test a wearers BAC level to let them know when it's time to stop drinking.
The BACtrack 'Skyn' tracks a wearers blood alcohol content (BAC) level consistently thanks to the embedded transdermal alcohol sensors it has. The BACtrack 'Skyn' works with the accompanying smartphone app to let wearers know when they are approaching or have hit the 0.04% BAC level. It can also be set to ping a family member or friend to let them know that the person is impaired.
The BACtrack 'Skyn' shows significant promise for those that are looking for a way to restrict their alcohol consumption or perhaps even stay on track with their sobriety. For general usage, the BACtrack 'Skyn' could be utilized by those that want to enjoy a drink before driving to let them know if they're suitable to get behind the wheel.
