Abstract: Systems, devices, methods for capsule endoscopy procedures are disclosed. A system for a capsule endoscopy procedure includes a capsule device configured to capture in-vivo images over time of at least a portion of a gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of a person, a wearable device configured to be secured to the person where the wearable device is configured to receive at least some of the in-vivo images from the capsule device and to communicate at least some of the received images to a communication device at a same location as the wearable device, and a storage medium storing machine-executable instructions configured to execute on a computing system remote from the location of the wearable device. The instructions, when executed, cause the computing system to receive communicated images from the communication device, perform processing of the communicated images received from the communication device, and communicate with at least one healthcare provider device.

Abstract: Methods for capturing and transmitting images by an in-vivo device comprise operating a pixel array in a superpixel readout mode to capture probe image, for example, according to a time interval. Concurrently to capturing of each probe image, the probe image is evaluated alone or in conjunction with other probe image(s), and if it is determined that no event of interest is detected by the last probe image, or by the last few probe images, the pixel array is operated in the superpixel readout mode and a subsequent probe image is captured. However, if it is determined that the last probe image, or the last few probe images, detected an event of interest, the pixel array is operated in a single pixel readout mode and a single normal image, or a series of normal image, is captured and transmitted, for example, to an external receiver.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to techniques and apparatus for improving power efficiency of a wireless device. The techniques may generally include determining a modulation scheme and transmit direction for transmission of a signal using a plurality of antennas, and controlling, separately, at least one amplifier for each of the plurality of antennas, based on the determined transmit direction and modulation scheme.

Abstract: Devices capable applying microwave and RF electromagnetic radiation to specific molecular interactions between a capture molecule and a target analyte and capable of sensing the specific molecular interaction are provided. Specific molecular interactions include, for example, specific recognition events such as, receptor-ligand, antigen-antibody, DNA-protein, sugar-lectin, RNA-ribosome, and enzyme substrate interactions and nucleic acid-nucleic acid hybridizations. Additionally, methods are provided for detecting the presence or absence of a target analyte in a sample. The presence or absence of the target analyte is detected, in part, through the detection of a binding complex between the target analyte and a capture molecule in the presence of microwave and or RF electromagnetic radiation.
