Hanoi, Vietnam – March 27, 2025 – DrunkSense, an Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology developed by VinAI, has been recognized by the Business Intelligence Group with the “2025 Artificial Intelligence Excellence Awards” award. This accolade highlights DrunkSense’s groundbreaking innovations in automotive AI applications, particularly its advanced approach to preventing drunk driving.
This annual international award celebrates organizations, products, and individuals leading the way in applying AI to solve real-world challenges. The judging panel praised DrunkSense as “a transformative force in road safety,” emphasizing its real-time monitoring capabilities and swift intervention mechanisms.
Furthermore, its alignment with upcoming regulations—such as the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) standards in 2027 and the European New Car Assessment Programme (EU NCAP) standards in 2026—demonstrates the technology’s forward-thinking vision and remarkable adaptability to future safety standards.
Mr. Vuong Cap, Deputy CEO at VinAI, shared: “We are truly honored to receive this award from the Business Intelligence Group. DrunkSense exemplifies how AI can surpass traditional approaches, delivering a more advanced solution for detecting intoxication. By doing so, it helps automakers meet increasingly stringent regulations while ensuring greater safety for all road users.”
“The AI industry is evolving rapidly, and it is through the efforts of companies like VinAI that we see real-world applications driving change,” said Russ Fordyce, CEO of the Business Intelligence Group. “Their work exemplifies the kind of innovation and leadership that is shaping the future of artificial intelligence.”
DrunkSense is the world’s first drunk-driving detection technology that operates without a breathalyzer. Traditional breath-based detection methods have inherent limitations, such as requiring direct driver interaction and providing only a single-point measurement of blood alcohol concentration. These constraints can hinder the accurate detection of intoxicated driving and create opportunities for circumvention. DrunkSense addresses these challenges by continuously monitoring driver behavior, in-car signals, and ambient alcohol levels, enabling real-time alerts.
Drunk driving remains one of the leading causes of road fatalities. As traffic safety regulations grow increasingly stringent, AI-driven technologies like DrunkSense are setting new benchmarks for detecting intoxicated driving, contributing to safer roads worldwide.
DrunkSense is part of VinAI’s InteriorSense suite—an advanced collection of in-cabin technologies designed to enhance safety for both drivers and passengers. In testing, the system successfully detected and issued warnings in 70% of cases, highlighting its potential to significantly reduce accidents.
VinAI is currently delivering AI-powered solutions for the automotive industry. Its cutting-edge technologies have been integrated into multiple vehicle models from global automakers, with over 80,000 vehicles already equipped and plans to scale to more than 800,000 vehicles in the next five years.
