The "Diabetic Device" Section. by ShadowSystems2012-06-24 14:43:26
  Okay. So - is there any status? by LongFist2012-12-12 07:59:38
    Ask Klar or Reti, I suppose... by ShadowSystems2012-12-12 09:49:17
      Based on the assumption that Reti (or Klar) by LongFist2012-12-13 08:23:33

          An interesting idea. I just happen to be Type II by LongFist2012-12-13 13:51:00
            I hate the idea of an Insulin Pump. =-J by ShadowSystems2012-12-13 18:15:41

                Definitely talk to Reti! =-D by ShadowSystems 2012-12-19 12:48:46
He made "Drug Pushing Robots for the Military", so coupled with your Power Plants & Robotic, the two of you can *easily* design an Insulin Dosing, BSL Reading, FemBot/PersiCom!

It's not so much the implant that makes my skin crawl, it's the *repeated* surgeries for *repeated* implants that do it.
A one time implant, "set & forget" kind of thing wouldn't be so bad, but even a once every six months kind of thing would make me scream & start stabbing at people with licorice...

But if it were something that was Passive, Subcutaneous, and didn't pose a threat for things like infection vectors (e.g.: poking through the skin, so exterior infections could become *interior* ones), then I could handle that.

Something about the size/weight of a deck of playing cards or an old style Sony Walkman, attached to a velcro-strapped neoprene cuff, or a cloth wrap, like a Blood Pressure Cuff, that could be strapped to an arm, leg, or where-ever, firmly held against the body so it couldn't easily be ripped loose, would be great.
Give it a metric F4 Ton of internal memory storage for BSL data, plus it could double as an MP3 player, and you'd have Diabetics flinging money at you for a unit of their own.
