Abstract
This investigation pinpoints the major requirements for the development of a clinically reliable devices
for blood glucose monitoring. Noninvasive devices for blood glucose have been employed to monitoring blood
glucose with the effort to give a better life to diabetic patients by developing easy blood glucose measurement
instruments, with little fear of medical risk and mortality related to diabetes. Optically based methods for
noninvasive approaches have provided great development to blood glucose monitoring. Various researchers
and companies have designed and developed noninvasive blood glucose monitoring devices to detect diabetes,
and this paper describes their working principles, importance and limitations, so as to give room for more
comfortable designs. It is important to understand that noninvasive monitoring will never be achieved without
good calibration approach. At this point, we are far away from reaching the aim of noninvasive blood glucose
measurement, with many technical problems yet to be resolved.
