iBreath iPod accessory?
This post was published 3 years 3 months 15 days ago which may make its actuality or expire date not be valid anymore. This site is not responsible for any misunderstanding.Possibly the most valuable yet soon to be underused iPod accessory? You decide. The iBreath aims at curbing the number of drunk driving incidents by providing a means for individuals to test their blood alcohol level. The accessory attaches to your current iPod and provides instant results.
There’s a new gadget in the cult-like race to attach interesting things to the iPod, and it’s aimed right at a core New Mexico problem: drunken driving.
David Steele Enterprises this month introduced the “iBreath” iPod attachment, a blood-alcohol breath testing device following in the vein of the California company’s iPod flashlight and video glasses.
It might be up there in obscurity with other iPod attachments – ones that play music out of your toilet paper holder or turn the MP3 player into a laser pointer come to mind. But S.U. Mahesh, a spokesman for the New Mexico Department of Transportation, said he finds the concept intriguing.
I think these type of “accessories” should be limited to an actual vehicle restricting a driver from operating while under the influence.
