Abstract Wireless Capsule Endoscopy (WCE) is a patient-friendly approach for digestive
tract monitoring to support medical experts towards identifying any anomaly inside human's …

Introduction: This review presents noteworthy advances in clinical and experimental
Capsule Endoscopy (CE), focusing on the progress that has been reported over the last 5 …

Toward wireless medical microrobot applications driven by an electromagnetic actuation
(EMA) system, challenges associated with movability, the electromagnetic force, and the coil …

Magnetic tracking has been well studied for the localization of wireless capsule robots.
However, most of the existing magnetic localization systems require a stable background …

In this paper, we present the 3-D analysis of the torque transmitted to a small permanent
magnet that is embedded in a capsule robot to achieve targeted drug delivery. This analysis …

Electromagnetic tracking systems (EMTSs) are widely employed in medical instruments,
virtual reality, game control, etc. An EMTS mainly consists of three parts: magnetic field …

We report on a remotely actuated novel anchoring system (patent-pending) based on a
curved scissor-extending mechanism and the principle of a magnetic spring for wireless …

This paper addresses the rigid body localization (RBL) problem using an unsynchronized
sensor network, where clock offsets between sensors and anchors are present. We first …

This paper investigates the multiple rigid body localization (MRBL) problem using range
measurements. To address the MRBL problem, we propose the cooperative approach by …

As a new type of medical equipment, capsule robots are actuated wirelessly by space
magnetic field, which have important application advantages in the diagnosis and treatment …
