DVLA approves glucose sensor technology for Group 1 drivers

A fiber optic sensor for measuring glucose in aqueous solutions

In this paper, the set-up of a multi-mode fiber optic sensor for measuring glucose in aqueous solutions is investigated and evaluated. The basis of this sensor is based on the Fresnel Reflection. In this setup, a helium-neon laser is used as a light source, a fiber optic probe, photocell as detector and a digital multimeter. The statistical analysis of the recorded data shows a highly linear be...

GLUCOSE SENSOR UTILIZING SILICON PLANAR TECHNOLOGY NSF Summer Undergraduate Fellowship in Sensor Technology

A glucose sensor using silicon and platinum was designed and fabricated. The interaction of glucose oxidaise and glucose produces proteins which have dielectric properties that produce an electrical output measured through the bonding pads of a sensor. The sensor consists of two layers of platinum: one porous layer that serves as an area for the reaction to take place, and a second layer that c...

Technology and teen drivers.

UNLABELLED The rapid evolution of computing, communication, and sensor technology is likely to affect young drivers more than others. The distraction potential of infotainment technology stresses the same vulnerabilities that already lead young drivers to crash more frequently than other drivers. Cell phones, text messaging, MP3 players, and other nomadic devices all present a threat because yo...

Technology for Sensor Networks

Sensor networks will often need to organize themselves automatically and adapt to changing environmental conditions, failures, intermittent connectivity, and in response to power considerations. We review a series of technologies that we find interesting both because they solve fundamental problems seen in these settings, and also because they appear to be instances of a broader class of soluti...
