In UK, a prototype car to help people with diabetes has been developed.

The car flashes up blood glucose readings on a dashboard display. The driver would wear a tiny glucose-sensing device that would be inserted under the skin on the abdomen. The system would send the blood glucose reading to the car's dashboard via Bluetooth, a wireless system used in mobile phones to transmit music and picture files.


How's that?! I like it. I just wonder how much will this be. Things like this aren't cheap. But then if a diabetic person can afford it, why not? Besides, diabetes really need not be a life sentence. It can be managed well with a decent quality of life.

The said prototype car was developed by Medtronic.
