Vibrating Micro-Capsule as an Autonomous Device for in-situ Endoscopic Scan and Body Tissue Characterization
Authors: , , ,
Abstract: This work concerns the implementation of a diagnostic technique for the digestive system using a device designed based on a spherical vibrating capsule of 1 cm in diameter and autonomous by its onboard electronics. For local scanning, this device is also equipped with a network of high-frequency optimized sensors. Depending on the desired diagnosis, this device can adapt its electromechanical characteristics to the nature of the application in transmission and/or simultaneous reception. It is also designed for network configuration to provide a 3D mapping of the acoustic properties of the environment under investigation (biological tissues).
