Monitoring process

1. A monitoring method comprising:

monitoring one or more sensor(s) associated with an electronic monitoring device, wherein the one or more sensor(s) include one or more biometric sensor(s) configured to collect personally identifiable information, wherein the personally identifiable information pertain to a monitored individual and enables the monitored individual to be uniquely identified, wherein the one or more sensor(s) includes a Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) sensor;

enabling a wireless transmitter to transmit the personally identifiable information compiled into a progress report on the monitored individual from a smartphone to a monitoring application, wherein the monitoring application is a web based application;

determining the monitored individual's compliance with one or more monitored requirements, wherein at least one monitored requirement pertains to the smartphone and periodically monitoring a charging requirement of the smartphone; and

administering a reward system, wherein the reward system is configured to modify one or more reporting requirements by the monitored individual.

2. The monitoring method of claim 1 wherein the personally identifiable information includes biometric data, wherein the biometric data includes one or more of a DNA analysis, an earlobe geometry analysis, a facial recognition analysis, a fingerprint analysis, a hand geometry analysis, an eye patterns analysis, a signature analysis and a voice waveform analysis.

3. The monitoring method of claim 1 wherein the one or more sensor(s) include a camera, wherein the camera is configured to capture a real-time image of the monitored individual, wherein the real-time image is personally identifiable information.

4. The monitoring method of claim 1 further comprising:

comparing the real-time image of the monitored individual with a reference image of the monitored individual;

recording the real-time image of the monitored individual; and

storing personally identifiable information.

5. The monitoring method of claim 1 wherein the progress report on the monitored individual is periodically transmitted, randomly transmitted, transmitted based upon a sensor output or an alert, transmitted based upon a predefined schedule, transmitting in response to a prompt from a monitoring network, or at the initiation of the monitored individual.

6. The monitoring method of claim 1 further comprising:

generating a personal passcode; and

prompting the monitored individual for the personal passcode.

7. The monitoring method of claim 1 ,

wherein the monitored requirements further include one or more of an abstinence requirement, a curfew requirement, a probation requirement, compliance with a protection order, compliance with a court order, compliance with a self-medication requirement, compliance with one or more geographical constraints, attendance of one or more self-help meetings, attendance at one or more court hearings, attendance at one or more probation officer meetings, and one or more individual proximity restrains.

8. A monitoring system comprising:

at least one processor device;

at least one memory architecture coupled with the at least one processor device;

a first software module executable by the at least one processor and the at least one memory architecture, wherein the first software module is configured to monitor one or more sensor(s), wherein the one or more sensor(s) include one or more biometric sensor(s) configured to collect personally identifiable information, wherein the personally identifiable information pertain to a monitored individual and enables the monitored individual to be uniquely identified; and

a second software module executed by the at least one processor and the at least one memory architecture, wherein the second software module is configured to:

enable a wireless transmitter to transmit the personally identifiable information compiled into a progress report on the monitored individual from a smartphone to a monitoring application, wherein the monitoring application is a web based application,

determine the monitored individual's compliance with one or more monitored requirements, wherein at least one monitored requirement pertains to the smartphone and periodically monitoring a charging requirement of the smartphone, and

administer a reward system, wherein the reward system is configured to modify one or more reporting requirements by the monitored individual.

9. The monitoring system of claim 8 wherein the one or more sensor(s) includes a camera, wherein the camera is configured to capture a real-time image of the monitored individual, wherein the real-time image is personally identifiable information.

10. The monitoring system of claim 8 further comprising:

a wristlet tether, wherein the wristlet tether includes a Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) sensor and a body temperature sensor, wherein the BAC sensor is a Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) sensor.

11. The monitoring system of claim 8 ,

wherein the wristlet tether includes a biosensor.
