description | Non-Invasive blood glucose monitoring using infrared (IR) light is considered to be a useful and reliable tool for measuring blood sugar levels during daily activities. IR-based glucose monitoring depends on the variant absorption levels of IR light waves by blood with high or low levels of glucose solution. This paper introduces a low-cost finger probe to measure glucose based on Arduino and embedding a Clarke error grid with fuzzy logic. An electronic blood glucose meter was designed and implemented in a non-invasive and painless manner based on an infrared sensor. The electrical signal expressing the level of glucose in the blood with a mathematical equation was used to calibrate and map the physical and electrical values. The final numerical value was validated with the Clarke error grid by implementing fuzzy logic (FL). The designed device was tested on 30 subjects with 15 diabetes subjects. The results show the high significance of results at points where the FL was able to determine an error range of less than 10% of measured glucose within the same range of the reference measurements. The proposed method of using FL with a Clarke error grid gives more confident and precise outputs in cases of this kind of portable device. |
