We caught up with Mahmood Afshari at Embedded World 2025 to hear more about how Arduino Pro is helping our partner Softeq rapidly prototype and accelerate time to market for embedded devices like this smart, non-invasive glucometer. Leveraging near-infrared spectroscopy and AI to monitor your blood sugar through a simple finger scan, the Portenta H7-based POC analyzes how NIR light interacts with tissue, using deep learning to interpret glucose-related data without the need for reagents.
