Regular <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/health\/diabetes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">glucose checks<\/a> only add to the weight. Most people test with finger pricks or wear a patch that needs a sensor under the skin. If you dislike needles, this part can feel like the hardest task of the day.<\/p>\n<p>Researchers at MIT are working on a new option. They developed a device that shines near-infrared light on your skin and reads your blood sugar without breaking the surface. It works through Raman spectroscopy, a method that looks at how light scatters when it hits molecules in your tissue.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sign up for my FREE CyberGuy Report<\/strong>Get my best tech tips, urgent security alerts and exclusive deals delivered straight to your inbox.

You rest your arm on top for a 30-second scan. A small beam shines through a glass window onto your skin. The light returns with tiny shifts in wavelength that reveal what molecules are present.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier Raman systems pulled in about 1,000 spectral bands with plenty of noise. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/tech\/topics\/mit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MIT team<\/a> discovered that they only need three bands to calculate glucose levels. With fewer signals to process, the device becomes smaller, faster and more affordable. This boost also improves speed since the system no longer sorts through redundant data.<\/p>\n<p>In a four-hour study, a volunteer drank two glucose drinks while researchers took readings every five minutes. The new scanner matched the accuracy of two commercial glucometers the participant wore. That result surprised the team since the device is still in early development.<\/p>\n<p>After perfecting the shoebox version, MIT engineers built a prototype the size of a cellphone. That unit is now in clinical testing with healthy and prediabetic volunteers. A larger trial with people who have diabetes is expected next year.<\/p>\n<p>The long-term goal is even more exciting. Researchers believe they can shrink the hardware to a watch size. They also want to confirm that the system reads accurately across many skin tones. If these steps succeed, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/tech\/technologies\/wearable-tech\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wrist-based glucose monitor<\/a> could be possible.<\/p>\n<p>This light-based method joins other ideas that try to move past needles. A recent chest strap used ECG signals to predict glucose levels. It looked promising, but it still needs time before it reaches consumers. Interest in noninvasive monitoring keeps growing since so many people want relief from the pain of repeated skin punctures or adhesive patches.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/tech\/humanoid-robot-performs-medical-procedures-via-remote-control\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>HUMANOID ROBOT PERFORMS MEDICAL PROCEDURES VIA REMOTE CONTROL<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you or someone you love manages diabetes, fewer needle sticks could change your routine. A quick scan may replace the stress of drawing blood or inserting a sensor. The accuracy seen in early testing shows that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/health\/medical-research\/medical-tech\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">noninvasive tools<\/a> are not a distant dream.
