Haptic Simulation of Venipuncture


Abstract

Extraction or drawing blood from veins is known as venipuncture. It is a dedicated and specialized skill that one can only become proficient after doing much observation and more important practice. This paper proposes a different image-based haptic simulation for venipuncture training. The actual photographs are used for a fast implementation of different arms with better visual immersion, and the function-based modeling method is provided for fast collision detection and computation.
