“Zero is a fantastic visionary concept of what the future of combined micro-sized glucose monitors/insulin pumps could look like. It is, as one of our judges noted, —“essentially a functioning artificial pancreas in an armband”— Zero was the strongest design proposal among all the entrants this year — “a beautifully conceived product platform overall.” …. like the very appealing mobile user interface. We generally felt that the designer behind this has the kind of vision we’d like to nurture, and encourage to join the diabetes industry.”
