On Thursday, August 23rd, Apple filed a patent for what looks like non-invasive glucose monitoring technology. Is the tech giant (finally) developing non-invasive glucose monitoring technology? Here’s what that might look like.

Tech blogs following the nitty-gritty details of patent applications pulled out details that hint at what Apple might be working on. The patent application for “Reference switch architectures for noncontact sensing of substances” describes a system designed to measure the concentration of a particular substance in a sample using certain wavelengths of light.

This new invention uses complicated technology to address potential accuracy issues. Among other factors, the patent application includes plans for specialized light emitters, filters, beamsplitters, and short-wavelength infrared detectors.

While it might sound like science fiction, it has long been speculated that Apple might be working towards incorporating non-invasive glucose sensing technology into the Apple Watch. The patent did not specify what substances might be measured by the proposed system, but it has fueled the glucose monitoring hypothesis. Past rumors even mentioned that CEO Tim Cook was at one point personally testing a prototype.

As of yet, this technology has not been wildly successful. One related technique called Raman spectroscopy was being used in developing a product called the C8 MediSensor. It ultimately failed to produce a working product. After the failure of the MediSensor, Apple reported hired multiple former employees of C8.

Will the next generation Apple Watch be able to read blood glucose levels by shooting light beams into our wrists? Stay tuned!

    whale spotted in illinois river A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

    two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri. While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
