Development of a Modular Sensor Battery Integrated with a Data Collection Platform for Alcohol Level Detection and Driver Geolocation

This paper presents the development of a system designed to detect alcohol levels in drivers' exhaled breath, which includes a modular sensor battery (BSM) integrated with a data collection platform (CD Platform). The BSM comprises an alcohol sensor, a GPS sensor, a distance sensor, and a microcomputer. The experimental setup involves installing the sensor array within the cabin of a vehicle to gather real-time data on the driver's location and the concentration of alcohol particles in exhaled air during the physiological process of respiration. This approach aims to provide a comprehensive system for monitoring the impact of alcohol consumption on driving behavior, potentially contributing to enhanced road safety and informed policymaking. The data collected through this platform can be used to study the correlation between alcohol levels and driving patterns, offering valuable insights for the development of intervention strategies and technologies to prevent drunk driving incidents.
