One of the main types of evidence against you in court is the breath test. Law enforcement uses three main types of devices to measure the amount of alcohol in the blood stream. The most frequently used device is the breathalyzer. This uses a chemical reaction with the alcohol that shows up as a color change. The Intoxilyzer detects alcohol through infrared spectroscopy and the Alcosensor III and IV used a chemical reaction in a fuel cell. All three of these devices contain a mouthpiece into which the driver blows and a sample chamber where the air is tested. Although these devices are accurate for the most part, mistakes can happen.
