Before Leaving the
Bar, A chance to Breathalyze
In the NPR article “Before Leaving the
Bar, A chance to Breathalyze” (2011), Daniel
Robinson has
been discussed a new device called Kiosk that detect alcohol level in user’s
blood
based in two
main aspects which are people interactive and device limitations. First, in
spite of
drinkers
thoughts that they are ok, Robinson illustrate people interactive with the new
device
rely on Rank
survey results that shows young drinkers enthusiasm and desire to use it unlike
other people
who think it’s too embarrassed in a social settings. Since new devices could
predominantly
have errors, Robinson has doubts toward Kiosk accuracy which needs some
expertise in
order to have proper results. After considering Kiosk useless, Robinson
concludes
on a
debatable attitude whether Kiosk using policy would consider bar owners fears
about their
revenue or not.
