About: Evena’s Eyes-On-Glasses system combines a multi-spectral 3D-Imaging software platform with a pair of glasses that already exist. In fact, they’re actually using the Moverio smart glasses from Epson, which are binocular HD glasses, to use the platform. The combined technology allows the wearer to create anatomically accurate and real-time displays of the patients vascular system. Vivipuncture, or the use of needles, is the most common medical treatment on the planet, and studies show that 40% of shots and IVs start out wrong the first time. Glasses like the Evena Eyes-On system could help to fix this.

Our Thoughts: Evena Medical is a headset that enables wearable computing in the medical field. It is used for literally seeing through the skin, a sort of “Real-time vascular imaging system.” The medical and practical uses for the system are almost endless and the clever use of AR in the medical industry is the stroke of a genius.
Imagine having to have a needle inserted into your body for various reasons, we all know it is down to the training of the nurse how easily and quickly she can do this. Well, with this augmented reality headset that is no longer the case as it shows the veins within the body clearly, precisely and also shows the speed of the flow! For those people who are constantly having needles put into their veins this could quite simply revolutionise their lives, as well as the medical professionals who look after them.
