AcuNetx Inc., (OTCBB: ANTX), a California company, has developed a device that follows the movements of the eye. The HawkEye System will be employed by law enforcement as an aid in the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus (i.e. the eye test) Standardized Field Sobriety Testing. The company hopes to have the devise used by Drug Recognition Experts and DUI cops. As regular readers of this blog will recall, drivers who are impaired with Canabis alone will not exhibit HGN (nor VNG) but will likely show LACK of CONVERGENCE and DILATED pupil size. The company has not announced any research on their web site, but any consolidation of the HGN is welcome news. Obviously, the next generation of DUI cases will involve the use of marijuana. Ohio does not employ DRE trained experts for marijuana DUIs (yet?). For more on HawkEye visit the company web site at, http://www.acunetx.com/.
