Introduction

William White is an inventor associated with Federal Way, Washington, and Amazon Technologies, Inc. His patent describes a wearable approach to estimating glucose values using carbon dioxide emitted through the skin.

Latest Patents

White is credited with 1 patent: “Systems for Determining Glucose Values Based on Transdermal Carbon Dioxide Emission.” The invention uses a wearable device to estimate a glucose value for the body area beneath it by measuring carbon dioxide emitted from the skin. Openings in the device housing allow carbon dioxide to enter and exit. The device may regulate carbon dioxide accumulation with a valve or wait for the gas level inside the housing to reach equilibrium before estimating glucose. Additional sensors can measure physiological or environmental factors, such as ambient carbon dioxide or increased respiration, and a modifier may adjust the resulting glucose value in response.

Career Highlights

The patent reflects White’s work on wearable health-monitoring technology and methods for deriving glucose estimates from transdermal carbon dioxide measurements. His listed company affiliation is Amazon Technologies, Inc.

Collaborations

The available information identifies Amazon Technologies, Inc. as White’s company affiliation. It does not specify particular co-inventors or other collaborators for the patent.

Conclusion

William White’s patent presents a wearable method for estimating glucose values from carbon dioxide emitted through the skin, with sensors and adjustments intended to account for relevant conditions.
