Abstract:
Objective To intelligently adjust the driving force of a remote-controlled drug delivery capsule based on the postural information in intestines,so as to achieve the control of speed and dosage of drug delivery and reduce the energy consuming.Methods A six-axis sensor MPU6050 was used,and its Z axis was coincident with the central axis of the drug delivery capsule so as to made the medicine discharge port pointing to the Z direction.The angular velocities and accelerations of X,Y,Z axes were monitored,transformed to quaternion with built-in digital motion processor,and then converted to Euler angle form.The intelligence adjustment of driving force could be achieved by accessing the real-time attitude angle of the capsule.Results The results of experiments showed that the error between the actual and the attitude angle measured by the sensor was less 1°.Conclusions The intelligent adjustment scheme of driving force of a gastrointestinal remote-controlled drug delivery capsule was designed.The real-time attitude angles of the capsule could be obtained with high spped and precision.This study can provide the theoretical and experimental basis for the intelligent adjustment of the driving force.
