The system uses sweat sensors on the steering wheel to detect high levels of alcohol in the driver's body. If the driver's blood-alcohol level is too high, the car won't start. The system would also feature sensors to detect abnormal steering and a camera to detect if the driver's pupils are not in focus. No further details were available.
