Measuring Glucose with Radar

Measuring Glucose with Radar
Jul-08-18
An innovative non-invasive glucose monitoring technology replaces needles with radar and AI.

The system was developed by a team from the University of Waterloo using the Soli alpha kit from Google, a small 60 GHz mm-wave radar designed for gesture recognition. The team altered the Soli so that it can detect changes in glucose levels in different solutions by sending out electromagnetic waves and measuring how long it takes the waves to return to the receiver. AI developed by the researchers analyzes the data, translating the results into glucose readings with an 85 percent accuracy.

According to George Shaker, “We want to sense blood inside the body without actually having to sample any fluid. Our hope is this can be realized as a smartwatch to monitor glucose continuously.”
