  • ILLUMINATION APPARATUS FOR AN IMAGE SENSING MEANS AT THE DISTAL END OF AN ENDOSCOPE
    Publication number: 20160135672
    Abstract: An illumination apparatus for an image sensor at the distal end of an endoscope includes an illumination carrier and a plurality of micro LEDs each including a main surface from which the emission is made, with a maximum lateral dilatation of less than 500 ?m. The illumination carrier is associated with the distal end of the endoscope, and the plurality of micro LEDs are arranged on the illumination carrier such that with electrical excitation, the environment of the distal end of the endoscope is at least in some portions illuminated.
    Type: Application
