AI • NIR Imaging • Smart Vascular Access

See the vein. Guide the decision. Comfort the patient.

VenoGuide AI is a portable medical technology concept that uses near-infrared imaging and artificial intelligence to support clinicians in finding the most suitable vein before insertion.

THE PROBLEM

Repeated IV attempts are painful, costly and time-consuming.

Finding a vein is still highly dependent on experience, patient condition and trial-and-error — especially in children, elderly patients, dehydrated patients and difficult-access cases.

Patient discomfort

Repeated punctures increase pain, anxiety, bruising and dissatisfaction with the care experience.

Clinical delays

Failed attempts can delay medication, fluids, blood sampling and emergency decision-making.

Material waste

Each failed attempt consumes cannulas, needles, gloves, dressings, antiseptics and clinician time.

A portable AI assistant for smarter vein access.

VenoGuide AI combines NIR illumination, image processing and an AI decision engine to visualize veins and recommend the most suitable access point based on visibility, diameter, straightness and depth confidence.

  • Real-time vein visualization using near-infrared imaging
  • AI-based scoring to support clinical decision-making
  • Clear targeting guidance for the recommended access point
  • Patient-specific venous access history for future visits

TECHNOLOGY

Built from accessible hardware. Powered by image intelligence.

01. Illumination

850 nm NIR LED array illuminates tissue and enhances venous contrast.

02. Capture

NoIR camera module captures infrared patterns beneath the skin surface.

03. Processing

OpenCV enhances contrast and filters noise for clearer vein visualization.

04. AI Scoring

The engine ranks candidate veins based on clinical usability parameters.

05. Display

Vein map can be shown through screen-based AR or future projection mode.

06. Data Loop

Successful access history can be saved to support future clinical visits.

PROTOTYPE

From concept to working proof-of-concept.

The first prototype focuses on validating the imaging, processing and scoring workflow before clinical testing.
