Description

I would like to ask whether there are plans, or whether it would be possible, to support integration of the following CGM systems as reliable BG data sources for AndroidAPS:
• Accu-Chek SmartGuide (by Roche)
• CareSens Air CGM (by i-SENS)
Both systems are becoming available in more regions, but currently it is unclear if their glucose data can be integrated into the AndroidAPS system.
Questions

  1. Are there any existing efforts to integrate either of these CGMs with AndroidAPS?
  2. If direct integration is not currently possible, what would be the recommended path to make them usable as reliable BG sources for AndroidAPS (for example via xDrip+ or another data bridge)?
    Goal
    The goal would be to use these CGMs as stable and reliable BG data sources for AndroidAPS in a closed-loop setup.
    If there are any existing discussions, experimental drivers, or documentation regarding these sensors, I would appreciate pointers.
    Thank you for the amazing work on AndroidAPS.

Research direction

Start by checking AndroidAPS discussions, experimental drivers, and documentation for Accu-Chek SmartGuide and CareSens Air, including any xDrip+ data-bridge efforts. The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Done would require an agreed path for using one or both CGMs as reliable BG sources in AndroidAPS.
