Design, fabrication and control of a magnetic capsule-robot for the human esophagus
Abstract
Much research on the development of a robotic capsule and micro robot for the diagnosis of gastrointestinal diseases has been carried out. The powering of these micro systems is becoming very challenging as the implementation of such systems is limited due to the existence of on-board power supplies. This paper presents a micro robotic system based on magnetic principles. The goal is to build a system in which a capsule-robot can be manipulated …
