Technology - The solution consists of a small reusable box to connect to an iPhone or an Android smartphone with an app.


In France since July 1, it is mandatory to have a breathalyzer (Alcohol tester) in his car. Car drivers have the choice between two alternatives: the disposable one of 2 euros or an electronic device priced more than 100 euros now. It will be much cheaper with larger sales volumes.

AndroMC Systems has worked on a solution associated with a smartphone, which is widely used in France. This company has developed the B-test, a breathalyzer that plugs into an IOS or Android smartphone, and it is associated with an application.

The principle is simple: you plug the reusable housing on the charging port and blow in it and the app indicates whether you are fit to drive. If not, the app may even find another means of transportation in the neighborhood, or call a cab for you. This product has been awarded prevention label by a big insurance company. But to be legal, it must receive approval from the state. If this happens, it will be launched at the end of the year.

The combination of smartphone and Mobile broadband connectivity is becoming a driver of new business innovations, that will lead to economic growth, social empowerment and without any doubt to many surprising disruptions.

If you don't disrupt yourself, you will be disrupted!!
