Abstract: GLUCOBand is a wrist-based health technology designed to aid continuous glucose monitoring and offer early warnings on dangerous low glucose events. It combines the convenience of wearable technology with optical sensing and an innovative alert system. GLUCOBand aims to determine glucose levels with non-invasive sensing by utilizing safe mid-infrared radiation produced by a Quantum Cascade Laser (QCL). Our system uses controlled mid-infrared light to determine glucose fluctuations through the skin. An on-board algorithm processes the data to determine the glucose levels and trends. Thermal sensors are used to determine variations due to temperature. A stand-alone alert system provides vibration and colored LED warnings for low glucose events. The display shows the user’s glucose level, trend, and recent monitoring data to allow the user to monitor their condition. GLUCOBand allows the user to continue monitoring their condition sans a smartphone or internet connection, thanks to its localized data storage. GLUCOBand also aims to eliminate the need for consumables since it is a consumable-free device, as opposed to the current alternatives, thanks to its design.
