Detailed Description

Vein detection technology is a vital area of research that is concerned with viewing patients' veins accurately. It avoids multiple needle pricks and makes the venipuncture process less traumatising to the patient. The research deals with the study of existing vein detection technologies and the development of a prototype based on the insights obtained from the study. The prototype was evaluated by experts, paving the way for a product that is effective and affordable for Indian scenarios.
