(1) A redesign of the insulin pump to make it more discrete and easy to manage, placing it on the wrist for an easy to see and use place.
(2) for people who mix their insulins: a machine which would measure the amount of each insulin needed and mix them itself, most people who mix their insulin either take mixed insulin in the morning at breakfast or at night with dinner.
(3) an idea that focuses on bringing light into the equipment.
When I took these ideas forward to my tutorial group, they believed that either (2) or (3) could be brought forward, they were the most interesting ideas.
To decide which concept to go with I decided to write a survey and post it on diabetic reddit to see what people thought of the insights:
Most of the responses from the questions suggested that mixing your own insulins was an out of date method and Most, almost all of the responses wanted some form of light on their equipment to help them out.
