Hardware and Software Implementation of an Artificial Pancreas System on a Mobile Device

In this work, an artificial pancreas AP system, implemented on a mobile device is described. The proposed AP platform integrates hardware insulin pump, glucose monitor, various sensors for vital signs and physical activities and software closed-loop control algorithm, sensor fusion, data storage and remote server access components via smartphone that is running a dedicated Operating System designed for AP systems. Interfacing with this OS and custom application development steps are presented. Closed loop operation is demonstrated with case studies.
