STOCKHOLM (Dow Jones)--Autoliv said Thursday it has been selected as partner in a project to develop an alcohol sensing system to prevent impaired driving.


MAIN FACTS:

-The project is co-sponsored by the Automotive Coalition for Traffic Safety (ACTS) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

-Autoliv is working closely with SenseAir AB and Hok Instrument AB.

-The initial phase of the project is expected to be completed by July 2010.

-The Autoliv approach is to identify small variations in the air composition within an arm-length to the driver's mouth and nose. By measuring the correlation between alcohol and CO2, the detection of the presence of alcohol within an arm-length of the driver can be accomplished.
