Actxa Core Smart Ring Featured On Fox News For AI Glucose Scan Technology

Updated: Jul 30

Dr. Marc Siegel Sharing Glucose Monitoring Technology, AI Glucose Scan

Diabetes is increasing worldwide, and the need for earlier, simpler glucose awareness has never been more important.


Actxa's Core Smart Ring was recently featured on Fox News, where senior medical analyst Dr. Marc Siegel discussed the release of Actxa's Core Smart Ring as a new AI-powered wearable for non-invasive glucose monitoring. The segment highlighted how the ring senses blood flow and pulse, using machine learning to detect elevated blood sugar, while also pointing the growing important of lifestyle awareness as global diabetes cases continue to rise.


Why Glucose Awareness Matters More Than Ever

The global rise in diabetes makes glucose awareness more relevant not only for people living with diabetes, but also those focused on preventive wellness, pre-diabetes risk, lifestyle habits and long-term health.


For many people, glucose is still one of the least visible signals in daily wellness. Sleep, activity and heart rate are commonly tracked by wearables, but glocose has traditionally been associated with finger pricks, blood tests or dedicated monitoring devices.


That is where the next shift in wearable health technology begins.


What is AI Glucose Scan?

AI Glucose Scan is a clinically backed, non-invasive feature designed to support glucose awareness from the finger.


Instead of requiring needles or test strips, AI Glucose Scan uses photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors to capture blood-flow waveform, which are analysed to support non-invasive assessment of elevated blood glucose status.


This is especially relevant for people who want to be more proactive about their metabolic health, including those who are paying closer attention to insulin response, dietary patterns, post-meal habits and daily energy levels.


How AI and PPG Are Changing Wearable

PPG is an optical sensing method that uses light to detect blood volume changes in tissue. It is readily available in wearable and clinical devices for health-related signals such as heart rate and oxygen saturation.


With Actxa's proprietary BGEM® technology, Core Smart Ring analyses full PPG signals to identify more complex patterns within the body's optical and blood-flow data. This supports a more accessible approach to glucose awareness, helping users understand when their glucose status may be normal or elevated.


While traditional glucose monitoring remains important for medical care, glucose visibility is no longer only relevant to diabetes management. As more health-conscious individuals explore Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGM) to better understand their metabolic response, Actxa's technology supports this growing shift with a more accessible, non-invasive and lower-cost way to begin building glucose awareness in everyday life.


A New Era of Everyday Glucose Awareness

Being featured on Fox News marks an important moment for Actxa and for the future of accessible wellness technology.


Glucose awareness is no longer about occasional checks. It is becoming part of everyday health conversations, especially as diabetes continues to rise globally and more people look for simple ways to understand their body better.


We aim to make glucose awareness more approachable, less invasive and easier to integrate into daily life.

The future of wellness is not just about tracking more data. It is about making the signals that matter easier to understand.
