“Enduring, not ultimate form”: from “Industrieform” to Red Dot (1980 - 1997)
PLIX
PLIX is a kit for young prediabetic patients that uses laser peripheral blood sampling to minimise pain, alleviate fear of needles, and avoid cross-infection. The portable device combines a blood collector and tester unit to enhance convenience and encourage more proactive blood glucose management. Supported by an app, PLIX provides intuitive feedback, gamified monitoring, and dietary advice to enhance health awareness.
