Abstract
This study introduces a groundbreaking idea: using swallowable sensor
capsules with augmented reality (AR) to conduct real-time,
high-resolution examinations of the human body. These capsules, ingested
like pills, transmit data as they pass through the body. Physicians can
then use AR headsets to view this data as a 3D model of the organ or
tissue being examined, along with sensor readings and a miniature
endoscopic view. While there are technical challenges to overcome, this
innovation has the potential to revolutionize non-invasive examinations
of the digestive tract and internal cavities, improving the diagnosis of
conditions like inflammation, infections, and cancers. With further
technological development, swallowable sensor capsules with AR
integration could become a valuable complement to traditional medical
imaging methods, offering dynamic 3D visualizations of the body’s inner
workings.
