That’s terrific! Thanks very much. I will ping you when I’m ready to get that phase started. Probably in early Sept.

I’m also trying to find a way to hook up with a community of potential users to set up an “open source” clinical trial of the device.

I have access to a few lists of insulin pump using diabetics almost all of whom would LOVE a device like this and be probably be happy to beta test.

I am a long term type I diabetic with very little sensation of low (or high) blood sugar values. I am VERY interested in your device and would love to help develop and test it.

I have a background in software engineering and have worked on medical device software in the past.

PLEASE get in touch and let me know if I can be of any assitance (and or an early guinea pig)

I think he meant 8-10 hours as the length of a typical night. Sleep may wary from person to person but typical is not more than 10 hours and if the device lasts that long on a fully charged battery, its purpose of monitoring a full night length is served sufficiently.

I think the idea is nice considering that he are basing it on open source ideology. I am thrilled by the idea of being able to extend it. It should not be hard to add sensors to monitor heart rate for example. Just wondering if it is possible to make the hardware also modular – like add another thin strip (wrist band) for a heart monitor, etc. That will be powerful.
