Google Envisioning to Develop A Smart Contact Lens
Moving beyond Google glass, now Google
is planning to built a smart contact lens using tiny chips, sensors
and antennas to continuously check the blood sugar level of a
diabetic patient to make the life easy and healthier.
Watch Brian Otis Providing Information on Google's Next Wearable Device - Smart Contact Lens
Google said that it is still in
discussions with the Food & Drug Administration of US and is
testing the prototypes of the lenses. The lenses are equipped with
wireless chips and miniature glucose sensors, according to Brian Otis
and Babak Parviz, the project co-founders at Google. According to
Otis and Parviz, "Diabetes is a growing problem affecting one
out of 19 people on earth and as the blood sugar level keeps
fluctuating throughout the day, people use finger sticks which is
very painful, though tears can also be used to measure the glucose
levels".
They also added that "we are
planning to develop smart chip and sensors so small that looks like
bits of glitter and antenna thinner than a human hair to crack the
mystery of tear glucose with higher accuracy and can also be
generated once per second". The lenses would also serve as
warnings to the wearer. For example, tiny LEDs can be integrated into
the lenses to indicate when the blood sugar level crosses above or
below certain thresholds.
