Abstract: Diabetes is a common chronic disease in recently developing world. Diabetes is an incurable disease. Control of glucose level is necessary for diabetes. The measure of glucose level is two or three times a day. Invasive or Non-invasive methods involve in measuring glucose level. Invasive method damage the finger tissue as a measurement of glucose is frequent. As an alternative, the non-invasive method facilitates regular testing, relieves pain and discomfort caused by repeated finger pricks. A non-invasive method of glucose level measurement proposed in this paper using a NIR sensor. NIR sensor determines pancreas shrinkage. Pancreas shrinks for all diabetic patients. The variation in the intensity of NIR light received from the photodetector after passing through the finger determine the glucose level in blood. LCD helps in displaying the glucose level.
Keywords: Diabetes, NIR Sensor, Non-Invasive, Glucose Level.
