Abstract: A method and a system of deploying an ignition interlock device (IID). The method comprises receiving a time series of breath alcohol content (BrAC) measurements that are unitarily sourced from a pre-identified user, each BrAC measurement of the time series including an alveolar breath component and an interferent breath component; estimating a dissipation rate of alcohol attributable to the pre-identified user in accordance with the time series of BrAC measurements; determining, responsive to estimating the dissipation rate of alcohol, at least a subset of the BrAC measurements as being based on the alveolar breath component but not the interferent breath component; and performing one of triggering and not triggering the IID into a lockout state based on the at least a subset of the BrAC measurements.

Abstract: A method includes receiving criteria data regarding a first control requirement frame for a first jurisdiction, a second control requirement frame for a second jurisdiction, and a third control requirement frame for a third jurisdiction. The criteria data for each control requirement frame includes at least: i. criteria data for an intoxicant concentration limit data subframe; ii. criteria data for a calibration requirement data subframe; and iii. criteria data for a reporting subframe. The method further includes storing the criteria data in a stringency database; sorting the first, second and third control requirement frames based on the relative stringency of criteria data, receiving a request for a compliance device according to the requirements of the first jurisdiction and the second jurisdiction; accessing the sorted control frames of the first and second jurisdictions to determine an operational control frame based on the sorted control frames; and providing the operation control frame.

Abstract: A breath alcohol device calibration system includes a computerized calibration module operable to calibrate a breath alcohol device, and an interface operable to couple the breath alcohol device to a remote server. The interface uses a connection employing a cryptographic function such that data stored on the breath alcohol device can be securely transferred from the breath alcohol device to the remote server using the calibration system. The interface is further operable to transfer data stored on the breath alcohol device from the breath alcohol device to the remote server directly without storing the data in nonvolatile storage on the calibration station.

Abstract: A method and a system of deploying ignition interlock device functionality. The method comprises receiving data in authentication of a user account associated with the IID; rendering a user interface at the mobile computing device, the user interface including indication of a status of the user account associated with the IID; and receiving a selection of a user action responsive to the status of the user account associated with the IID.

Abstract: A breath alcohol device calibration system includes a computerized calibration module operable to calibrate a candidate breath alcohol device using a reference gas of known alcohol concentration, and a reference gas tank identification module operable to identify a reference gas tank that is coupled to the breath alcohol device calibration system. Identification is performed using at least one distinguishing characteristic of the coupled tank, the distinguishing characteristic providing reference gas tank information including at least the known alcohol concentration of gas in the reference gas tank. The reference gas tank identification module is further operable to read a temperature history of the tank from an electronic device coupled to the tank, and to indicate an error condition if the temperature history of the tank indicates temperatures below a first temperature threshold over the tank's recent temperature history to potentially result in incomplete mixing of the reference gas.

Abstract: Embodiments include breath intoxicant monitoring systems and methods of operating a breath intoxicant monitoring system. In an embodiment, a breath intoxicant monitoring system, includes a first detection element, a second detection element, and a control module. The first detection element can be operable to detect a level of an intoxicant in a user's breath and to provide a continuous signal indicating the level of intoxicant. The second detection element can be operable to detect a level of the intoxicant. The second detection element includes a different type of element than the first detection element. The second detection element can have greater accuracy than the first detection element. The control module to selectively operate the second detection element based on the signal received from the first detection element, and to indicate whether the level of intoxicant in the user's breath exceeds a threshold. Other embodiments are also included herein.

Abstract: A system and method of deploying a portable monitoring device. The method comprises inferring a rate of motion associated with the portable monitoring device; initiating, at a display screen of the portable monitoring device when the rate of motion is above a predetermined threshold, an image capture request; determining, responsive to the image capture request, a violation; and reporting the violation to a remote server communicatively coupled to the portable monitoring device.

Abstract: A system and method of bio-cleaning an ignition interlock device (IID). The method comprises receiving a handheld unit of an IID in a fixtured arrangement with an IID calibration station, and applying, while maintaining the IID handheld unit in the fixtured arrangement, a bio-cleaning agent to at least one ingress port of the IID handheld unit in a consolidated IID bio-cleaning and IID calibration operation.

Abstract: A vehicle immobilization system includes a detection element operable to detect a level of an intoxicant in a user's breath. A control module is operable to receive a signal from the detection element indicating the level of intoxicant in the user's breath, and to selectively restrict operation of a vehicle based on the level of intoxicant in the user's breath exceeding a threshold. A wireless relay is operable to replace a standard relay in the vehicle, and to wirelessly communicate with the control module such that the control module is operable to control the wireless relay to selectively restrict operation of the vehicle.
