Abstract

The wireless capsule is felt more comfortable for the patients than the traditional endoscope or enterscope. The wireless capsules, such as Heidelberg capsule, pH capsule or M2A capsule, have been successfully used as diagnostic tools for many years. This present paper proposes a new prototype system of the functional capsule endoscope that can bring and jet medicine to the nidus. The prototype system is comprised of an image sensor, illumination sources, microlenses, a two-way wireless module, medicine-jet subsystem and so on.
