UC Prototype Ring Measures Blood Sugar Without Needles
Engineers at UC developed a smart ring that uses sweat analysis to measure blood sugar non-invasively, sending data to a companion iPhone app. Unlike existing wearables that rely on biophysical sensors, this prototype tracks chemical biomarkers. The breakthrough could transform diabetes management if commercialized.
