Abstract

Diabetes is one of the life-threatening diseases in the world. Nowadays, diabetes patients are increasing due to improper monitoring of blood glucose level. The diabetes infected patients have to check the amount of glucose level present in the body using an invasive method. By using this method, they have to take a drop of blood from the body and check the amount of glucose level, by which they can inject the required amount of insulin into the body. To overcome the difficulties caused by invasive method, in this prototype a non-invasive methodology is used. The main objective of this work is to design a portable non-invasive blood glucose level monitoring device using Near Infrared (NIR) sensors. The device includes Infrared LED, Photodiode, and Arduino MEGA 2560 microcontroller. Besides being able to detect glucose concentration in blood, the device also displays the required insulin dose based on glucose level corresponding to the Body Mass Index (BMI) of the user. In this paper, NIR spectroscopy is used to achieve bloodless monitoring of glucose level from a diabetic patient and also extracts insulin mechanism based on the data provided by the processor/controller.
