An app to check if you are dizzy or not, and further telling if you should drive or not.
Simple, to check for dizzyness, just give the user a bunch of random directions to move their head into, basically tracking the nose, check the latency, if it exceeds a certain limit, boom you have mr/mrs dizzy right there.
We can also check for mobile wobbling to give the user a warning without even giving the test.

Alright, so there is no proof of concept, but I am kinda confident that this will work.
Also, one more thing, tracking the eyes (more specifically, iris), would be better, much better than moving your head around. BUT, since the user is dizzy and/or drunk, it kinda doesn't matter. But (yes, a but over a but), if the user is not an individual rather a third party using this for checking the soberiety of second party, this might be an issue, for the second party of course. But the major reason I am not implementing this is because... I am unable to. Firebase ML Vision does not offer such service, web technologies like webgazer.js need to be calibrated almost every time, hence are not so much practical for the end user.
Also more research is needed for selecting the optimal latency range (1-70 ms imo).
This can help a lot in preventing accidents due to drunken driving. Moreover since EVs are going to takeover the market, vehicles can connect to the mobile device and help the user check if he/she is in a stable condition to drive or not. This is in no way or sense a soberiety or drunk test, maybe in the future depending on the accuracy of the model used (instead of firebase).
Interested in implementing this somewhere? Let's chat! here
