Overview
Snask empowers children with diabetes to make their own food choices. With food scanning technology, a patch and application, the child can gradually learn how to control his own diabetes. Instead of daily struggles and endless food calculations the child can instantly connect to parents and doctors. The child can access healthcare in a easy and fun way, adapted to his need. SNASK aims to empower children to make their own food choices and gradually give them the power to monitor their diabetes.
