ABSTRACT:
A blood alcohol content monitoring device is disclosed. The device includes a microcontroller storing body characteristic information of an individual and alcoholic beverage information, a clock for measuring the passage of time and a user interface coupled to the microcontroller such that a user may input body characteristic information and alcoholic beverage information for use by the microcontroller. The microcontroller further includes calculation means for calculating the blood alcohol content of the individual based upon body characteristic information, alcoholic beverage information and the passage of time. The calculation means also estimates the blood alcohol content of an individual if the individual were to have an additional drink. The user interface includes a display coupled to the microcontroller for providing the individual with information regarding blood alcohol content based upon the body characteristic information, alcoholic beverage information and the passage of time. The display also provides the individual with a message regarding the estimated blood alcohol content if the individual were to have an additional drink and provides an indication of the time required to elapse before the individual can consume their next drink without exceeding the preset target blood alcohol content.
