Took my daughter for a blood draw today and we got to use a vein visualization device for the first time. It wasn't this exact model, but it was pretty similar: https://christiemed.com/products/veinviewer-models/veinviewer-vision2/

Maybe I'm just basic, but I was really impressed. Apparently it uses an infrared camera to see the patient's blood vessels and then it uses a projector to display them on the patient's skin so that the phlebotomist has an easier time finding a good blood vessel. Brilliant!
