Method and system for monitoring intoxication
First Claim
1. A method for informing a user of an intoxication state, comprising:
- upon receiving an input from the user at a wrist-borne mobile computing device associated with the user, prompting the user to provide a breath sample to a sample receiving module at a first time point;
at a processing subsystem in communication with the sample receiving module, receiving a breath sample signal derived from the breath sample;
at the processing subsystem, determining a value of a blood alcohol content (BAC) metric from the breath sample signal;
at the processing subsystem, generating a predicted temporal profile of the BAC metric for the user over time, based upon the value of the BAC metric and the first time point; and
transmitting commands, from the processing subsystem to the wrist-borne mobile computing device, that prompt the wrist-borne mobile computing device to display information from an analysis derived from the predicted temporal profile at a display of the wrist-borne mobile computing device, thus informing the user of the intoxication state.

Abstract
A method and system for monitoring a user'"'"'s intoxication including receiving a set of signals, derived from a set of samples collected from the user at a set of time points; providing a sobriety task to the user proximal to a time point of the set of time points; generating a performance dataset characterizing performance of the sobriety task by the user; receiving a supplementary dataset characterizing a demographic profile of the user and/or a physiological state of the user; determining a set of values of an intoxication metric, derived from the set of signals; generating a predicted temporal profile of the intoxication metric for the user based upon the set of values, the set of time points, and the supplementary dataset; generating an analysis of the user'"'"'s sobriety based upon the performance dataset and the predicted temporal profile; and providing a notification to the user based upon the analysis.

11. A method for informing a user of an intoxication state over time, comprising:
-
using a mobile electronic device associated with the user and having a user interface, prompting the user to provide a breath sample to a sample receiving module in communication with the mobile electronic device, at a first time point; at a processing subsystem in communication with at least one of the mobile electronic device and the sample receiving module, receiving a breath sample signal derived from the breath sample; at the processing subsystem, determining a value of an intoxication metric from the breath sample signal; at the processing subsystem, generating a predicted value of the intoxication metric for the user at a future time point after the first time point; and transmitting commands, from the processing subsystem to the mobile electronic device, that prompt the mobile electronic device to display information associated with the predicted value and informative of the future time point at a display of the mobile electronic device, thus informing the user of the intoxication state over time. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
