Apple with sensors to treat diabetes

Apple has a team of biomedical engineers working on a secret project to treat diabetes through sensors, unveiled the CNBC chain.

According to the sources consulted by this American television, the objective is to develop sensors capable of monitoring blood glucose levels in a continuous and non -invasive way, to better treat diabetes.

Biomedicine -related companies have already tried, but have failed due to the difficulty of precision measurements without drilling the skin.

To achieve this, Apple would be developing optical sensors, which would monitor glucose through the skin by means of light signals.

It may be that the next Apple Watch series 3 already carries the meter, if it is often reliable progress ball, they have kept it at ultra -sector and have worked the best scientists

The important thing in a sensor is reliability, although you have to transfer the skin.The interesting thing would be to increase reliability, decreasing sensor size and lowering prices.
A non -invasive sensor that is not totally reliable, does not serve as much ..., and without direct measure it will be difficult ..,.

Ball will be the price that the clock will have ...

Surely it would be much cheaper than the Dexcom, if not that if you do not need consumables, savings would be beastly.

But before the Apple Watch1 came out, the same was already rumored so you do not get many illusions.Apple just like Google has many teams working on things that never come to the market.

En 1922 descubrieron la insulina, en 1930 la insulina lenta. ¿Que c*** han hecho desde entonces?
