Ignition interlock identification apparatus and method of use thereof
First Claim
1. A method for controlling an ignition system used by a particular individual, comprising the steps of:
- the particular individual wearing an identification bracelet;
said identification bracelet identifying the particular individual;
said identification bracelet communicating presence of the particular individual to a localized peripheral system, said localized peripheral system within ten meters of said identification bracelet during said step of communicating;
performing a non-alcohol drug test on the particular individual;
communicating results of said non-alcohol drug test with said localized peripheral system; and
said localized peripheral system controlling an ignition interlock of said ignition system using both;
the communicated presence of the particular individual and the results of said non-alcohol drug test.

Abstract
The invention comprises a personal identification device used in function of a peripheral device and/or for communication with an external network. In one embodiment, a non-removable personal identification device communicates presence of a specific individual to a peripheral device, such as an ignition interlock device, a tracking system, and/or a communication system or person, such as a police network, an enforcement agency, a regulatory network, a supervisor, and/or a parent or guardian. For example, information related to the peripheral device reliant in part on the presence of the personal identification device is communicated with the remote system. Optionally, any information associated with the personal identification device and/or the peripheral device is maintained in a secure format warranting true information, usable in a legal setting.
