Looks very much like the Libre Sensor.
Engineers from the University of California San Diego have come up with a wearable "lab on a skin" sensor that can track multiple vitals important for people who live with diabetes at once. Besides the obvious continuous blood sugar monitoring, the device can detect and report alcohol levels, as well as measure lactate, two important diabetes biomarkers whose monitoring can prevent dangerous blood sugar drops while exercising or having drinks with friends on a night out.

Scientists develop tiny wearable for painless monitoring of all three diabetes vitals, including blood sugar and alcohol levels
The UC San Diego Center for Wearable Sensors has created what they call a "multi-tasking wearable" for continuously monitoring not only blood sugar levels, but also the impact of drinking alcohol and participating in strenuous exercise on them. This Holy Grail of diabetes vitals' monitoring is...
