What would a breathalyzer look like if it were designed in the iPhone era? It probably wouldn’t look like the BACtrack Select S80 Professional Edition, a heap of plastic with a '90s-era digital readout, which is Amazon’s top-selling breathalyzer.
Russian designer Vadik Marmeladov wanted to build a breathalyzer that looked like something James Bond would use if he had one too many Vodka martinis — the kind of tool he wouldn’t be embarrassed to pull out of his pocket at a club. He built the Lapka Breath Alcohol Monitor, a handsome ceramic cylinder that monitors your blood alcohol content and sends it to your smartphone using sound waves whenever you blow into it. It’s up for pre-order starting today.
