Tolea Insulin Pump

Tolea is an insulin pump that targets those who are suffering from Type-1 diabetes, where it will use a “flexible elastomer embedded with artificial setae, the nano-scale growths found on gecko’s feet which allow them to stick to virtually any surface.” In essence, this tiny little bump will remain stuck to your skin, allowing you to insert disposable insulin cartridges within so that insulin can be delivered into your body constantly without the threat of pain, bringing convenience to an all new level. Kudos to designer Joe Brussel for thinking about those who cannot stand the pain of needles…
