Low-Cost and Portable Capsule Endoscopic System with Novel Imaging and Multi-Lighting Vision Capability

The project proposes to develop a low-cost portable endoscopic system to detect gastrointestinal diseases which lead to colorectal cancer. It uses novel image processing and multi-lighting techniques that will allow physicians to view more area and features of human small intestine, enabling quick and accurate diagnosis. The system is portable and does not require any hospital facility. Development will mainly be conducted in Saskatchewan.
