ABSTRACT
Living with diabetes requires constant control and vigilance, which can significantly impact a person's mental and physical well-being. Therefore, it is important to revolutionise diabetes therapy by combining advanced technology with user-centric design to create a seamless, efficient and stress-free experience that enables diabetics to live a more empowered and mobile life.
The aim is to improve the quality of life of people with diabetes by minimizing the treatment effort. By reducing the stress associated with diabetes treatment, those affected can experience more freedom and regain control of their everyday lives without the disease dominating them.
This is where cadu, a smart, needle-free insulin delivery device that works in combination with a special app, can help. The device replaces outdated insulin pens with an intuitive, efficient and precise solution that is customised to the user's needs. cadu is connected to the smartphone magnetically, making it an indispensable everyday companion. Like conventional insulin ampoules, cadu has a capacity of 3 ml, but it is refillable.
cadu uses modern technology to rationalise diabetes management through three core principles.

cadu uses modern technology to rationalise diabetes management through three core principles.
Automation: Precise calculation of the insulin dose by tracking carbohydrate intake and embedding CGM systems already on the market. (Continuous glucose monitoring)
Convenience: A jet injection mechanism makes conventional insulin pens and additional accessories superfluous, as the injection is needle-free. The insulin is injected under the skin using pressure. This is also significantly less painful than conventional needles.
Intuitive: An accompanying app allows users to take photos of meals, eliminating the need for manual calculations and reducing blood sugar fluctuations. This app uses AI to analyse the photographed food and calculate the important factors for the correct insulin dose itself. In addition, notifications guide the user through the therapy process and ensure ease of use and confidence in the treatment.
cadu represents an advancement in diabetes care by combining practicality and innovation to give users freedom and security. By focusing on automation, convenience and ease of use, this design offers a new approach to treating diabetes gracefully and easily. Live a mobile life as diabetic – As simple as that.
