At the time when the sizzling donuts swept through New York, the only distress of enjoying the pastry chef Dominique Ansel was to line up. But for people with diabetes, enjoying a doughnut is not just as simple as queuing. First, one hour before eating, they had to prick their fingers and measure blood sugar levels. Then, they need to estimate the amount of sugar in the food to adjust the amount of insulin injected. Finally, two hours after the meal, they have to measure blood sugar again to ensure that the insulin reaches the standard value. The whole process is extremely cumbersome, and this is the life of the patient. In fact, not all patients are so well trained. Today, Google wants to change their lives through contact lenses. Don't rush to cheer for Google. In fact, this concept has already been proposed. For many years, researchers have attempted to implant glucose sensors in contact lenses in different ways, such as tear-based biofuel cells and to indicate glucose levels by fluorescence. Google smart contact lenses take a similar approach, but it replaces fluorescent technology with LED display technology. This means that the patient's contact lenses will constantly change color. For people with diabetes, the advantages of Google Smart Contact Lenses can be summed up in two words: continuous and non-invasive. No one wants to break the fingers several times a day, and no one wants to check the monitor every few hours. Google Smart Contact Lenses will give diabetics a degree of freedom to generate blood glucose data every second. However, such wearable blood glucose monitoring techniques are not yet widespread. The researchers revealed that this is not because it lacks theoretical verification, and because the price is too expensive. With Google’s free service model, the cost threshold for such devices is expected to decrease. The 2011 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that nearly 26 million Americans have diabetes and another 7 million have not been diagnosed. When announcing smart contact lenses, Google cited data published by the International Diabetes Foundation (IDF) in 2013. IDF claims that the number of diabetic patients in the United States ranks third in the world, with a total of 24.4 million patients. China and India ranked first and second, with a total of 98.4 million and 65.1 million patients. In 2013, the total number of diabetic patients worldwide was approximately 382 million. By 2035, this number will rise to 592 million. By 2050, there is an average of one in every three Americans. But why is Google paying attention to diabetes? Smart contact lenses are indeed an extension of the Google glasses project, but what Google really needs is user data. As we all know, Google is a company that collects information. Google provides free web services such as Gmail and search, in order to obtain user data. We all get sick and go to the hospital. Google knows this well, and if it reforms its medical treatment, it will certainly create a win-win situation. Through the Google database and collaborative applications, we can track, control and monitor our health data, and Google can also mine valuable data from it. As early as 2008, Google launched GoogleHealth, a personal medical record management platform, which is a database for storing personal health records. Google believes that the platform allows users to have more information to make more informed medical choices. Of course, this data belongs to Google, and Google Health users' habits will also be recorded by Google, which has spawned Google trends. However, Google was forced to close GoogleHealth in 2012. Google recognizes that GoogleHealth is only popular with patients and tech enthusiasts who understand technology. As a result, Google decided to develop wearable technologies for specific populations, such as people with diabetes. Although Google is once again involved in the health field, Google still pays attention to user data. This 50m distance measuring meter is made of two parts: the laser distance outside unit and the sole part laser measure module. Great distance range is from 3cm to 50 meters with ±1.5mm high accuracy. Digital distance measuring device is quick and reliable measure with one hand pushing the button. It is designed for hand helding, very convenient to put in your jacket pocket or trouser pocket. 50M Laser Distance Measurer,Mini Laser Measurer, Laser Measure 50M,50M Laser Distance Meter Chengdu JRT Meter Technology Co., Ltd , https://www.accuracysensor.com
1>. Easy to Use. It is very easy to learn how to use a Laser Distance Meter, it can measure distance with pressing a single button.
2>. Safety. Using a laser distance meter to measure is much safer than using a measure tape, for users do not need to climb up and down.
