Google have already made our lives easy and for now it is coming with the latest addition to google's name. The new patent reveals the firm is planning a "needle-free" way to collect blood through blood samples yes you heard it right collecting blood samples through smartwatches.
This whole technology works with a system takes form of handheld device or we can say wearable patent design.
It would send air down a barrel to make 'micro particle pierce skin' after that the blood sample would be sucked by the device and then it will be analyzed by the smartwatch.
We are living in a generation where we don't need a machine to calculate our blood rate,how much exercise you do as well as stress levels a smile smartwatch can simply do all such things very easily now google has came with a new concept of analyzing the blood samples simply through smartwatch the firm has recently filled a patent for "needle free blood draw"
Google suggests the device could even replace glucose testers used by diabetics entirely.
The patent said: 'Such an application might be used to draw a small amount of blood, for example, for a glucose test.'
Google suggests the device would one day replace glucose testers used by diabetics and could even take the form of a wearable resembling a smartwatch (pictured). It points out that the smallest possible puncture is needed to cause as little pain as possible, but very small diameter needles can snap easily.The filing describes a machine that sends a pulse of gas into a barrel containing a 'micro-particle' capable of puncturing the skin and drawing a small drop of blood.
Google has filed a patent for a 'needle-free blood draw' system that could be part of a wearable attached to someone's wrist, or a hand-held device (illustrated). The filing describes a machine that sends a pulse of gas into a barrel containing a 'micro-particle' capable of puncturing the skin and drawing a small drop of blood.We all hope that this turns out to be a successful innovation for the mankind.
