Abstract
Various embodiments provide systems and methods for identifying impairment using measurement devices.
Claims22
A system for determining a likelihood of impairment, the system comprising:
- a user attached monitor device, wherein the user attached monitor device includes:
- a strap configured to secure the user attached monitor device to a monitored individual;
- a sensor;
- a processor;
- and
- a non-transitory computer readable medium communicably coupled to the processor and having stored therein instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- receive a test setup request from a central monitoring station via wireless communication network, wherein the test setup request indicates a request to a user to initiate an impairment test available on the user attached monitor device;
- start the impairment test;
- generate an impairment value based at least in part on information from the sensor;
- and
- report the impairment value generated on the user attached monitor device to the central monitoring station.

A method for monitoring impairment, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a user attached monitor device, a test setup request, from a central monitoring station,
- wherein the test setup request indicates a request to a user to initiate an impairment test available on the user attached monitor device;
- wherein the user attached monitor device is attached to a monitored individual and comprises a sensor;
- starting the impairment test by enabling the sensor;
- sensing a characteristic of the monitored individual using the sensor;
- and
- generating an impairment value based at least in part on the characteristic of the monitored individual, wherein the impairment value indicates a likelihood that the monitored individual is impaired;
- and
- reporting the impairment value generated on the user attached monitor device to a central monitoring station.
