Introducing the SCRAM CAM

An Advanced Alcohol Monitoring Solution in Santa Cruz

The SCRAM CAM device is a highly secure and continuous remote alcohol monitoring system designed to detect alcohol consumption around the clock. Participants in Santa Cruz have the option to wear the device either voluntarily or as a court order before sentencing. This innovative ankle bracelet ensures complete sobriety, providing peace of mind for prosecutors, probation officers, judges, and law enforcement officials.

The SCRAM bracelet is discreet and can fit comfortably under most pant legs. Utilizing transdermal monitoring through skin perspiration, it continuously detects any alcohol consumption during the required monitoring period. For high-risk offenders, the SCRAM device can be combined with house arrest features or GPS location monitoring, offering additional safeguards.

Over 1600 courts and jurisdictions rely on SCRAM to monitor both low- and high-risk alcohol offenders. Technological advancements over the past two decades have made the SCRAM bracelet smaller, more efficient, and tamper-resistant. To date, it has recorded over 2 billion alcohol readings, and its mobile technology allows for continuous testing, ensuring immediate detection of any non-compliance.

Participants can benefit from clear and concise reporting on alcohol consumption without the need to visit a testing center. Information is transmitted through landline telephone or Ethernet connection, making accurate home confinement monitoring possible.

How SCRAM Works

The SCRAM CAM bracelet, worn on the ankle, conducts transdermal testing through skin contact below the detector. It automatically tests for alcohol consumption every 30 minutes, with a subtle vibration during testing that users quickly adapt to. The perspiration tested is undetectable outside the bracelet but contains traces of alcohol excreted through the skin when consumed.

The SCRAM CAM bracelet communicates with a base station located in the participant’s home, requiring a landline, Ethernet, or wireless connection. These options ensure that participants from various economic backgrounds can comply with alcohol monitoring requirements, without the need for additional installations.
