Apple Watch Series 8 to bring infrared blood glucose sensor, suggests report

Apple recently launched Watch Series 7 globally, and the rumours about Watch Series 8 are already making rounds on the internet. It was earlier reported that an Apple supplier started testing a new sensor that will measure the blood sugar level and blood alcohol levels of the user. A new report by DigiTimes explains that Ennostar and Taiwan Asia Semiconductor are working on an infrared sensor that will be able to read blood glucose levels.

The report further reveals that the sensor uses wavelengths above 1,000 nm and works with a photodiode that can detect blood sugar levels. It can also manage to analyse the pulse and blood oxygen of the user.

Blood sugar is usually measured by pricking a finger and that is why if Apple Watch can measure it via a sensor, it can be a game-changing feature. This sensor can be really helpful for people with diabetes and other related medical issues. Notably, an option of blood glucose has also been added in the Health app to iOS 15 but this value has to be added manually f0r now.

To recall, the Apple Watch Series 8 is expected to launch next year in the fall.
