    This document discusses a laser-based vascular illumination system called AccuVein that uses an FPGA to detect vein positions to improve venipuncture. It features an accurate, movement-tolerant Class 1 laser, user-friendly interface. The system components include red lasers, mirrors, an FPGA, photodiode, CPLD, and microcontroller. It processes channel data, performs vein processing, and provides a blended projection. Experiments showed it led to higher first-stick success rates, less pain, and improved ability to cannulate veins compared to other methods.

    CONCLUSIONS
    AccuVein is the leading vein viewing system
    around the world.

    It is a device for detecting and illuminating


    the vasculature using an FPGA.

    Because the results were supposed to be fast,


    accurate and presented in real time, FPGA
    was considered to be the most suitable choice.
