specs will be used to see the veins of the body..!!

we are now used to of getting a needle in our body pierced having the faith that it's the last option left. we watched it from our small childhood.. and keep watching till we die.. but this trend is going to change by this new research which will be there by next year.. sucking a needle into your body is not simple as it seems... some times more attempts are done to pierce it which becomes discomfort for the patient... nurses now will be able to see patients' veins in real time, right through their skin.

The glasses can be worn over existing eyewear, and incorporate "multi-spectral 3D imaging" (multiple spectra of projected light) to make veins show up when viewed via the glasses' dual cameras. Users see the patient's skin as it really is through the glasses' clear lens, but with an image of the veins as processed by the cameras overlaid on top.

it will be some what like the new google glasses.. Those camera's featured with multi-tasks functionality like bluetooth, Wi-Fi or 3G wireless to remotely-located medical staff – two built-in speakers assist in such situations. It's also possible to store images onboard the glasses, for future reference. Image processing and power are supplied by a separate microprocessor, that is worn on a belt and hard-wired to the glasses.

Eyes-On Glasses should be commercially available to medical clients as of the first quarter of next year..

Students and staff of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem have taken another step  to the same challenge, and developed a vein-detecting needle-giving robotic device known as SAGIV...!!
