The new system combines ViCentra’s discreet and featherlight Kaleido patch pump with Diabeloop’s DBLG2 app-based algorithm—enabling automated insulin delivery controlled directly from the user’s smartphone. The integration of Dexcom G7, which is 60% smaller than its predecessor and features an all-in-one sensor and transmitter, significantly enhances comfort and ease of use.
“Kaleido is built for people, not just glucose levels,” said Tom Arnold, CEO of ViCentra. “This launch marks a step-change in wearable diabetes technology: beautifully designed, smartphone-controlled, and powered by a proven algorithm. Together with our partners, we’re making flexible, closed loop therapy more accessible—and more human.”

ViCentra congratulates Diabeloop on receiving CE Mark for DBLG2 and celebrates this important milestone in the companies’ long-standing partnership.
