Dexterity and simulation exercices

ALCOVISTA goggles simulate alcohol effects and also when you are under the influence of other drugs, including the lag of reflexes, blurred vision, and confusion. These goggles represent a BAC of 0.08 to 0.15. It’s important not to forget the fact that everyone react differently.

Walking on the line

Every participant with ALCOVISTA ® goggles have to do 9 steps in straight line following a line on the ground (adhesive, rope): The steps have to be successive, with no space between each one, the hands remaining downward. When the participant finished doing the 9 steps, he has to retrace one's steps and doing the same. Indeed, he can observe that he’s not walking very well!

One more step

When the goggles are well-tailored and the arms are along by the body, the participant has to stick up his foot at 20cm, one finger pointed on the ground and begins to count out loud during 30 seconds.

Balls shoot

Some balls are setting on the ground, at 5 meters of garbage or a box, a little more wide than the balls. Pick up the balls, one after the other and shoot it in the garbage.

Glasses and pens

Put a glass on a table (1 meter from the edge of the table). Place 5 pens at 20cm from the edge of the table, and move them further apart (10cm). Sit down in front of the table, and put pens one after the other in the glass.

Lift objetcs

In a plastic glass, put a lot of objects, like keys, money, dices, etc. Ask the participants to stand up as quick as possible.

Other suggestions

You can play ping-pong, trying to put a string in a needle, decant water from a glass to another, write down a phone number, open a padlock, etc. If there are not too many people and if you have time, you can imagine other activities in which vision is connected to the precision of the movements.

Important information

For a more efficient program, the participants have to do 5 different activities at least. First of all, without ALCOVISTA ® goggles in order to observe how easy the exercises are, and then with the ALCOVISTA ® goggles. The participants will remark the big difference between being under the effects of alcohol and being sober.

Thanks to its ludic characteristics, ALCOVISTA goggles will enable to break the monotony of awareness campaigns, joining good humour and help shy people to enjoy these exercises. Avoid throwing heavy or rigid objects, because it could be dangerous for everyone. It’s totally inadvisable using these goggles to drive or to do dangerous activities (example: drive a car on a road).

 These goggles show the vision impairment in specific situations with some products. There is no precise link between elements determined like alcohol or medicine. As many phenomenon, the vision impairment depends on individuals, the optimal quality of the vision and the sensibility to the product. It will be useless to make a link with the ABV (Alcohol by Volume).
