Breath Analyzer Market Segmentation:

Technology Segment Analysis   

The fuel cell technology segment is predicted to dominate the market share by 2035. Owing to the tiny size of the cells and the low power needs, fuel cell is especially well suited for portable screening equipment. The electrochemical mechanism used by fuel cell sensors to oxidase the alcohol in a breath sample results in an electrical current that the breath analyzer detects to calculate the blood alcohol content (BAC). Compared to semiconductor devices, they have more chances to sustain accuracy over a considerably longer time span and will not produce a false positive for individuals who are diabetic or on a low-calorie diet. Furthermore, law enforcement and those wanting the highest level of accuracy employ fuel censor breath analyzers for roadside tests. As per estimates, more than 60% of breath analyzers are used by law enforcement across the world to assess blood alcohol content using fuel cell technology.

Application Segment Analysis   

The alcohol detection segment is estimated to register significant share during the forecast period. Alcohol consumption by the driver or person operating the car is a common cause of accidents nowadays. Throughout the years, the ability to detect alcohol in car systems has increased, which may one day prevent drunk driving incidents all around the world. For instance, vehicles should be equipped with or outfitted with an alcohol breath analyzer project, if the driver has ingested alcohol, the project for alcohol detection and vehicle control aids in controlling the vehicle. Furthermore, breath analyzer testing allows law enforcement to detect alcohol and catch drunk drivers before they cause any damage.
