This is a device for detecting human blood sugar, called a continuous glucose monitor (CGM).
What is the working principle of a continuous glucose monitor? It uses fine electrodes as sensors, which are embedded under the skin to detect the concentration of glucose in the blood. Then, it transmits the information to monitoring and display devices via wireless radio frequency. The sensor is usually placed on the abdomen or upper arm, and the transmitter is about the size of a credit card and slightly thicker, which can be conveniently placed in a pocket.
It consists of three parts: the sensor, the detector, and the inserter.
Personnel involved in the research and development of medical detection devices hope to provide some help and reference.
