Abstract

A traditional capsule endoscope can only take 2D images, and most of the images are not clear enough to be used for diagnosing. A 3D capsule endoscope can help doctors make a quicker and more accurate diagnosis. However, blurred images negatively affect reconstruction accuracy. A compact, autofocus capsule endoscope system is designed in this study. Using a liquid lens, the system can be electronically controlled to autofocus, and without any moving elements. The depth of field of the system is in the 3–100 mm range and its field of view is about 110°. The images captured by this optical system are much clearer than those taken by a traditional capsule endoscope. A 3D reconstruction algorithm is presented to adapt to the zooming function of our proposed system. Simulations and experiments have shown that more feature points can be correctly matched and a higher reconstruction accuracy can be achieved by this strategy.
