An interlock data collection and calibration system has a device computer, a gas delivery system, and a data port. The device computer has a computer processor and a computer memory. The gas delivery system delivers a gas sample to an ignition interlock device. The data port is operably connected with the device computer for enabling sample data from the ignition interlock device to be transmitted to the device computer. A calibration program operably installed on the computer memory receives the sample data, calibrates the ignition interlock device, and generates confirmation data, which is stored in a local database.

A gas monitor configured to monitor at least one target gas in an environmental mixture, by separating and concentrating the target gas and then adjusting for the concentration factor. The adjustment may also take into account sensor sensitivities to other gases. Methods for adjustment of target gas results and increasing accuracy of monitoring are described.

The monitoring breathalyzer has an alcohol sensor, a processing unit or processor, and a screen. The processing unit determines the accuracy of the breathalyzer using the user's body as a simulator. In monitoring mode, the processing unit receives a BAC measurement from the alcohol sensor based on the breath sample provided by the user at a sample time and determines a reference point from the BAC measurement. The sample time is determined based on a time to a predetermined calibration point from a drink start time.

A method for displaying gas concentration values on a graphical display of a leak detector comprises detecting a presence of a gas using a gas sensor. A signal is generated by the gas sensor and transmitted from the gas sensor to a processor. The received signal is processed to determine a gas concentration value and a corresponding time stamp. The gas concentration values and corresponding time stamps are displayed graphically as they are determined and newly determined gas concentration values and corresponding time stamps are displayed in relation to previously determined gas concentration values and time stamps in streaming manner.

Electrochemical sensors commonly used in breath alcohol testing devices detect a concentration of alcohol in a sample of fluid. The sample of fluid is introduced into the electrochemical sensor and a current is generated by the oxidation of the alcohol within the fluid. The electrical output from the electrochemical sensor, plotted over time, forms an output curve, which may be used to estimate the concentration of alcohol in the fluid sample. The technology disclosed herein includes various methods for determining the quantity of an electrochemically convertible substance in a fluid sample using a breath alcohol content device, including detecting water saturation level of the fluid sample. The disclosed technology involves measuring electrochemical sensor outputs to quantify alcohol content of the fluid sample.

A process and a system for monitoring at least one concentration of a gas in a monitored area includes generating data by a mobile gas measuring device (3a), whose position in the monitored area is determined or is known and transmitting the data directly or indirectly to a central data processing unit (1). The data are compared with at least one limit value, and an information signal is outputted by the at least one mobile gas measuring device and/or by the central data processing unit in case of an undershooting or overshooting of the limit value. The monitored area is divided into at least two zones (8) and zone-specific parameters are assigned to the zones. A functionality of the mobile gas measuring device is set and/or changed based on the current position of the gas measuring device and based on at least one of the zone-specific parameters.

A method for determining a calibrated measurement value for a concentration of the target gas comprises obtaining a measurement signal based on the concentration of the target gas. The method further comprises determining the calibrated measurement value based on the measurement signal and based on a calibration model. The calibration model is based on calibration data of a plurality of test sensor units having the same type as the sensor unit.

A system for calibrating a moisture sensor encompasses a processing unit (341). The processing unit (341) includes a reference data obtaining LCKT (345), a subject data obtaining LCKT (346) and a relationship calculating LCKT (347). The reference data obtaining LCKT (345) obtains reference data, after injecting water-vapor with known concentrations into an analyzer. The subject data obtaining LCKT (346) measures subject data indicating temporal variation of output-responses of a subject sensor element of the analyzer under test. The relationship calculating LCKT (347) compares the subject data with the reference data, and calculates relationships between the output-responses of the subject sensor element and the known concentrations.

The present disclosure relates to a sensor device including a gas sensor disposed on a first substrate, a heating element disposed within the first substrate so that the gas sensor overlaps the heating element, a processor operatively coupled to the gas sensor and the heating element, and a memory storing a program to be executed by the processor. The gas sensor is configured to measure first sensor data points and second sensor data points. The program includes instructions for performing the following steps in real-time: recording first resistance values and second resistance values of the heating element; adjusting the second sensor data points using the first sensor data points, the first resistance values, and the second resistance values to obtain corrected sensor data points; and determining sensed values from the corrected sensor data points.
