The minimally invasive e-Mosquito will automatically draw and test the wearer’s blood throughout the day.
In development by the University of Calgary for a decade, the current e-Mosquito prototype is worn on the wrist and made up of two parts. The top part of the device holds the battery, LED display and actuator, while the disposable bottom contains the needle and test strip. With the help of a shape memory alloy, the tiny needle in the device can penetrate a capillary under the skin, painlessly drawing a drop of blood for sampling.
