Alertgy hopes to provide Type 2 diabetics a way to non-invasively monitor their blood glucose levels on demand, provide trending information and alert them automatically if their levels are too low or high. Alertgy will use advanced materials and sensor technologies enabled by an application on a smartphone.

Alertgy strives to provide an inert non-invasive sensor system embedded in a comfortable wrist band. Alertgy’s technology eliminates the need for implanted sensors, patches or devices that use chemical reactions or fluid transfer through the skin, clamped devices that use lasers or other intrusive measurement techniques.
