Description:

Identifying drunk drivers will get a lot quicker and easier using this new infrared alcohol test--developed by TruTouch Technologies, an Albuquerque, N.M. start-up. Using the fact that body tissue with alcohol in it absorbs more light than normal tissue, the device detects alcohol levels by shining infrared light on the subject's skin and analyzing tissue based on how it reflects that light. The test takes 60 sec. to produce results vs. 20 min. for a Breathalyzer test and hours or days for a standard blood test. http://trutouchtechnologies.com/ ; ; http://www.aip.org/dbis/stories/2007/17122.html http://www.time.com/time/2006/techguide/bestinventions/inventions/medicine.html

    This machine is outstanding. It’s quick and user friendly. There is no possible way to have an incorrect reading from operator error. It is completely non-invasive. The perp can be completely unconscious, and you can still do the test.

    This is going to revolutionize DUII processing.
