BACtrack® Unveils the World’s First Wearable Alcohol Monitor, BACtrack Skyn
At CES, BACtrack unveiled BACtrack Skyn, the world’s first wearable alcohol monitor. Now tracking alcohol consumption is easier than ever; glance at your wrist at BACtrack Skyn and learn your approximate alcohol level continuously and in real-time.
BACtrack unveiled two new working prototypes:
- A band for Apple Watch, a first-of-its-kind design created to make BACtrack Skyn even easier for people to wear and integrate into their daily lives.
- A standalone wearable device worn on a user’s wrist.
The latter model is a smaller and improved version of the prototype recently awarded the grand prize and $200,000 in the 2016 National Institutes of Health (NIH) ‘Wearable Alcohol Biosensor’ Challenge.
Both versions sync wirelessly with the BACtrack Skyn app and offer powerful and actionable data. For instance, a user can learn when they’re approaching higher alcohol levels and slow down or stop their drinking. Best of all, this breakthrough in alcohol testing is effortless – the device passively tracks a user’s alcohol level in real time; there’s no need to use a breathalyzer.
The response to BACtrack Skyn and the potential it has to have an enormous impact on health and safety has been tremendous. Take a look at some press coverage below and on our Press page.
