Google introduced smart contact lens
International Diabetes Federation said. “We think the world is
losing the battle against diabetes disease.” But I suppose Google is still
zealous to conquer the end of diabetes that’s why it introduced speculative technology
in contact lens called “Smart Contact Lens”
The aim of smart contact lens is to measure the glucose
level of Diabetes patient. Typically diabetes patient pricks his finger to test
his glucose level that’s the manual sort of test. Google embedded a tiny
wireless chip and hair-thin antennae between two layers of lens. This chip is 50 times thinner than a
human hair. There is a glucose sensor with chip embedded in the smart contact
lens.
The sensor has enough potential to record the reading of
glucose level after each second. In order to make it more outstanding, Google is
striving to integrate LED light that will light up when the certain level of glucose
approaches crossed threshold.
So far smart contact lens is still in the developing phase
in GoogleX lab. Although Google has accomplished its clinical research studies
but still Google thinks that it needs some experts and partner companies
related to medical tech development. Talking to FDA (Food & Drug Administration) Google said,
“It wants to work with some partners who are particularly developing medical
equipment and gadget.”
