The project

Project description.

Share this projectFacebookXLinkedIn
The elders around us have diabetes and have reduced visual ability due to the disease. So through research, I discovered that diabetes reduces the ability to see and that many blind people also suffer from diabetes. It is very inconvenient for these people to use the blood glucose meter, and it often takes many times to test successfully. Moreover, patients not only need to measure blood glucose, but also blood ketones and uric acid, so many instruments are prepared at home. There are two different holes at each end of the device, one is round and the other is rectangular. The circle is put into the needle, slide the yellow button on the left side to push the needle into the device, rotate the device, put the test paper into the rectangular hole, push the yellow square button on the front side to raise the test paper. Communicate the test category through the voice system. Put the finger into the tray and the tray automatically tightens to secure the finger. Aim the needle at the finger to collect blood, rotate the device, and the test paper pops up to collect blood and wait for the voice to broadcast the blood information.
