Diabetes is a widespread health concern, affecting roughly 10% of the U.S. population, with many more at risk, and the global count reaching 422 million as of 2014. To assist diabetics in managing their condition more independently, the integration of IoT devices has been explored, allowing for continuous health monitoring and data analysis. A case study of this integration is highlighted through a customer, A.B., who connected his brother's glucose monitor to a logging platform, enabling real-time tracking and alerts for abnormal blood sugar levels. This setup involved decompiling the manufacturer's app and using a Java shipper to transmit data, which was displayed on a dashboard showing metrics like error rates and glucose levels. The system also offered improved alert mechanisms and allowed for the monitoring of device performance, providing an alternative to the device’s built-in alarm. This solution exemplifies the potential for IoT to enhance health monitoring and emergency response, potentially extending beyond diabetes management to other health and home devices.
