Finnish company Modz has designed an Angry Birds™ themed blood glucose meter for children with Type 1 diabetes that gives them points and rewards for testing regularly.

With video game qualities, the meter uses different game levels and points to motivate children to remember to test. Regular testing is critical for diabetics to ensure their blood sugar is at the proper level.

Parents receive e-mail and text message notifications when their child tests and can see the results.The meter also sends the results in real-time to a designated cloud service on the internet, where all test results and the carbohydrate contents of meals, insulin dosage as well as exercise are logged.
