Autonomous navigation of a magnetic colonoscope using force sensing and a heuristic search algorithm
Abstract This paper presents an autonomous navigation system for cost-effective magnetic-assisted colonoscopy, employing force-based sensors, an actuator, a proportional–integrator controller and a real-time heuristic searching method. The force sensing system uses load cells installed between the r...
