D-Sensor
THE FUTURE BEGINS
NOW.
Together with our partners, we are developing a miniaturized sensor for everyone who wants to keep an eye on their blood glucose levels. For updates just subscribe to our newsletter.

"If you don't have diabetes yet, knowing your blood sugar levels and how to regulate them through diet and behavior changes can help prevent you from developing diabetes."
Jessie Inchauspé, glucosegoddess on instagram
"For me as a marathon runner, a non-invasive sensor that tells me my blood glucose levels in real time makes a performance difference: it tells me how well energized I am and when and what I should be eating."
Tobias, berlin
"Smartwatches already have a abundance of sensors, including a pedometer, a gyroscope, an electrical pulse sensor and an optical pulse sensor, to name a few. The sensor I want the most, and one that would also change my life, is a blood glucose sensor."

Highly anticipated
The glucose sensor is by far the most eagerly anticipated advancement in Waerables' health portfolio. Studies have already proven that checking blood glucose levels regularly at an early stage can not only prevent type 2 diabetes, but also improve mental or physical performance and promote healthy behavior changes.
PDP FAQs
When can I purchase the D-Sensor?
The D-Sensor is currently still in development and is the further development or miniaturization of the D-Pocket. We are on a good way, but need more time and can not yet give a date when the D-Sensor will be available.

Can I test DiaMonTech's technology?
Unfortunately not yet. The technology is first tested internally and in clinical studies. If we are looking for testers, we will do so through our website or newsletter.
What distinguishes DiaMonTech's technology from that of its competitors?
DiaMonTech uses a completely new mid-infrared laser technology to scan the tissue fluid in the skin and detect glucose molecules. Short pulses of infrared light are sent to the skin, which are absorbed by the glucose molecules. This generates heat waves that are detected using our patented IRE-PTD method. This guarantees that no other molecules are mistaken for glucose, which ensures the high selectivity of our method.
What are the benefits of glucose monitoring for people without diabetes?
Glucose monitoring for people without diabetes can provide the following benefits:
1. Health awareness: Tracking blood glucose can help develop awareness of the impact of certain foods on blood glucose and promote a balanced diet.
2. Energy and performance enhancement: a stable blood glucose curve can help to better meet energy needs in training and everyday life, which can support performance enhancements.
3. Health optimization: regular blood glucose control can help balance hormones, improve well-being and possibly reduce the risk of certain diseases.
4. Early detection of problems: By monitoring blood glucose fluctuations, potential health problems can be detected and acted upon early.
A health care professional should always be consulted to address specific health issues when in doubt.
What are the benefits of frequent glucose measurement for people with diabetes?
Regular glucose monitoring is an essential component for effective diabetes management and reducing complications. The Diabetes Control and Complications Trial and a Follow-up Study (DCCT) showed that intensive monitoring of blood glucose reduced the risk of complications of eye disease by 76%, kidney disease by 50%, and nerve disease by 60%. A similar study (EDIC) showed that thorough control of blood glucose reduced all cardiovascular events by 42% and heart attacks by 57%.

When can I purchase the D-Pocket?
The D-Pocket is currently still under development. After that, clinical studies and certification processes have to be carried out. We are well on the way, but need more time and cannot yet give a date when the D-Pocket will be available. This also applies to the D-Sensor.
As soon as there is news, our newsletter subscribers will be the first to know!
Where will I be able to buy the D-Pocket? Is there a waiting list?
The D-Pocket will initially be marketed in European countries and in the USA.
There is no waiting list, but our investors will have priority access to our first devices.
Will my health insurance cover the cost of the D-Pocket?
We are already in contact with health insurance companies and are confident that the costs for the D-Pocket will be covered.
Does DiaMonTech technology require test strips or other disposables?
No, no consumables or disposables are required. It may be necessary to superficially clean the sensor from time to time. This can be done with small wipes that are also used for cleaning glasses.
The skin is so complex. How do you make sure that only glucose is measured?
True. Skin is a complex system of layers with various properties. The uppermost layer, called the stratum corneum, consists of dead skin cells that are gradually repelled and finally end up in your vacuum cleaner. The layers below are called the stratum granulosum and the stratum spinosum. They contain living cells surrounded by a liquid called interstitial fluid (ISF). ISF has a much simpler composition than blood and contains glucose at a level of 85-90% of blood glucose. Moreover, ISF glucose rapidly follows blood glucose changes, typically in less than five minutes. The selectivity given by the mid-infrared spectroscopy together with the use of our patented IRE-PTD detection technique ensures that we really measure glucose.
Does the laser generate heat? Are there any health risks?
No need to worry. The amount of heat deposited in the skin upon absorption of the light beam by glucose molecules is so minimal that you cannot feel it or measure it with a conventional thermometer. The heat we mention that is registered by our device amounts to less than 1/1000 of a degree Celsius (ºC).
Do the measurement results change due to the surrounding temperature?
The system is made to work at any moderate ambient temperature, i.e., from 10ºC to 30ºC. A slight loss of precision may occur for temperatures lower or higher than this range, but these are inherent to the impact of the temperature on capillary blood flow rather than the measuring process itself.
The D-Pocket includes basic calibration by the manufacturer. To increase precision, users should calibrate the measurement for their skin type. The D-Pocket software stores your calibration and measurements locally on the device without third party access. If desired, data can be automatically uploaded to a secure online database. Users can choose to share selected data with medical professionals, family members or friends.
