Abstract

This paper describes the development of a prototype robotic endoscope for gastrointestinal diagnosis and therapy. The goal of this device is to access, in a minimally invasive fashion, the portions of the small intestine that cannot be accessed by conventional endoscopes. This paper describes the macroscopic design and function of the device, and the results of preliminary experiments that validate the concept.
