intrude on the lives of responsible people, and are ignored by the

Its an interesting idea, especially if it can also detect impairment due to
tiredness/drugs etc. But I wonder just how well the dilation response time
correlates to reaction times and judgement impairment. I don't see any

It could be a bit unfortunate for anyone who has an uncharacteristic
dilation response though!
