Contribution to the Development of a Smart Video Capsule Endoscopy (VCE) System for Enhanced Gastrointestinal Diagnosis

Bach­e­lor’s The­sis / Mas­ter’s The­sis / Stu­dent Re­search Pro­ject

Ab­stract

Video Cap­sule En­doscopy (VCE) is a di­ag­nos­tic tool for a min­i­mal-in­va­sive ex­am­i­na­tion of the gas­troin­testi­nal tract. As part of an on­go­ing re­search pro­ject, we are de­vel­op­ing a Smart VCE pro­to­type that in­te­grates AI-as­sisted image analy­sis, real-time sen­sor data pro­cess­ing, on-de­vice de­ci­sion mak­ing, and mon­i­tor­ing. To test and ver­ify the pro­to­type, we are si­mul­tan­iously build­ing a hard­ware-in-the-loop (HIL) setup.

Po­ten­tial Top­ics

  • Im­ple­men­ta­tion of new hard­ware mod­ules in Sys­temVer­ilog
  • Ex­tend the HIL setup
  • De­vel­op­ment and com­par­i­sion of de­ci­sion mak­ing ap­proaches

Re­quire­ments

  • Sys­temVer­ilog
    • Suc­cess­fully at­tended “ESES” or “MAES” (op­tional)
  • C/C++
  • Python
  • De­vel­op­ment of de­vice dri­ver
    • Suc­cess­fully at­tended “PULPA” (op­tional)
