South Korea wants to introduce specific contact lenses to measure blood sugar through sensors

According to foreign media reports on the 21st, recently, the Korea Institute of Science and Technology announced the development of "smart contact lenses", only by wearing contact lenses can determine whether there is diabetes and the degree of development. It is reported that the sensor developed by the institute can measure the trace sugar contained in the tears, glucose, by wearing contact lenses.

The Korea Institute of Science and Technology has also developed sensors for analyzing tear components and tiny modules that drive the sensor with ultra-low power. The existing contact lenses are covered with two thin films, one of which is placed in a sensor that identifies the tear component, and one is used as a battery and communication module.

There is no difference between wearing this contact lens and a normal contact lens, it does not feel its thickness, and it can be worn continuously for 3 days. The communication module is still under development.

In January of this year, Google announced the development of medical smart contact lenses with wireless chips and sensors. The Korea Institute of Science and Technology claims that technology is ahead of Google in the field of sensors.

Dr. Song Rongyuan from the Interface Control Research Center said: "Google uses a glucose solution to test the sensor, and we use the tears of diabetic patients to interpret the carbohydrates. It is a success. We are also ahead of the sensor in terms of accuracy. Google."

In addition, the "nano generator" is installed on the contact lens, and the technology is also ahead of Google when using the tiny power generated when blinking.

Dr. Song also said: "We will expand the application field through complications diagnosis, new drug development, etc." The research team predicts that smart contact lenses can be commercialized in about five years.

The new flood control and water retaining plate is made of composite materials and weighs only 3.8kg. It is easy to use and fast to install. The water baffle uses the "L" shape principle. The erected structure is used to block rainwater, and the ground structure can convert the accumulated water into pressure, so that the water baffle will not fall.

The new type of water retaining plate is flexible and flexible. It can be used in semi closed tunnels when there is less rainwater on the road surface, allowing special vehicles such as buses to pass first. Once the rainstorm becomes a disaster, the tunnel can be completely closed quickly to avoid greater damage.
