It's a huge oversimplification, but essentially yes.
The current external artificial pancreas solutions operate subcutaneously, and your pancreas gets to work more directly with your blood. Subcutaneous blood sugar readings lag about 20 minutes compared to actual blood (finger pricks), and subcutaneous insulin delivery lags behind a healthy pancreas by even longer.
