Apple works on sensors to measure blood glucose through the Apple Watch Series 8

Apple Watch Series 6 Oximeter

For several generations we have been warning and seeing among rumors the possible arrival of a non-invasive way to measure this blood glucose level. The truth is that if we think coldly what the arrival of such a sensor in the Apple Watch with a "reasonable" price could mean, we are a real bestseller around the world.

Since the release of iOS 15, Apple users can add this sugar level data in the health app with an external device. To think for a moment if the Apple watch were able to automatically measure this parameter and save the data on the iPhone would certainly be something really interesting.

We are clear that these types of sensors that do not require a prick and subsequent blood sample exist today, but prices are often prohibitive. Apple has enough resources and money to work on this type of sensor and adjust its price as much as possible so that all those who suffer from diabetes can have much better control of the amount of sugar in their blood.

With the passage of time the Apple Watch is gaining points in terms of health control, we can think that at some point this sensor will also arrive ... MacRumors they echo a report that comes from Digitimes, in which Apple suppliers are supposedly developing hardware that would allow the Apple Watch Series 8 to measure this parameter. There is talk of short wavelength infrared sensors, a type of sensor in common use for health devices that could bring this new health function.

They have been several years talking about this type of sensor for the Apple watch, Do you think the next generation of the Apple Watch will be able to measure blood glucose?
