“…This radio-controlled electrostimulation capsule (RESC) was further tested in the GI tract of a healthy volunteer (2005). 32 Although showing great promise, no commercial product has been released based on this technology. A similar electrically stimulated capsular propulsion system was reported by Woo et al 33 from South Korea in 2011 [ Fig.…”

“…Their capsule incorporates a pair of peripheral electrodes for circular stimulation of the intestinal muscles; 12–15 electrostimulations per second was reported to cause localized muscular contraction that propels the device up to 6 mm s −1 and 4.5 mm s −1 in either direction of a porcine esophagus and small intestine, respectively. This radio‐controlled electrostimulation capsule (RESC) was further tested in the GI tract of a healthy volunteer (2005) . Although showing great promise, no commercial product has been released based on this technology.…”

“…All those who carry out CE hope that it will become possible in the near future to have radio control of the video capsule and take tis− sue samples. An autonomous radio−controlled robotic capsular endoscope (RESC) measuring 11 33 mm, with forward and re− verse movement functions, has been tested in the porcine and hu− man gastrointestinal tract [19]. The RESC was constructed to pro− pel and control the direction of movement of a wireless capsule endoscope, to which it was attached by a short cable, by means of circular muscular contraction in the gut.…”
