  • Patent number: 12268359
    Abstract: This disclosure enables various technologies for endoscopy, laparoscopy, and other endoscopic or scopic procedures and methods of manufacture and use thereof. One of such technologies includes a handheld unit and a computing terminal. The handheld unit has a handle, an energy store, a scope, and a first wireless communication interface. The handle has a channel. The energy store has a body and a tower extending radially from the body. The tower hosts a control panel for the scope. The tower extends within the channel when the energy store is assembled with the handle by a user. The computing terminal hosts a second wireless communication interface, where the second wireless communication interface receives an imagery of a cavity captured via the scope powered by the energy store when the scope extends within the cavity as the user holds the handle outside the cavity.

  • Publication number: 20250064298
    Abstract: A portable endoscopic system comprising an imaging unit for an endoscopic procedure. The imaging unit has an imaging coupler for receiving imaging information from an imaging assembly of an endoscope; a display integrated into a housing of the imaging unit; an image processing unit for processing the received imaging information into images of a time series and to displaying the image in real-time; a motion sensor configured to detect a motion of the housing; and a detection processing unit. The detection processing unit is configured to classify at least one anatomical feature in each image of the time series based on an artificial intelligence classifier; determine a confidence metric of the classification; determine a motion vector based on the detected motion; and display, concurrently with the corresponding image, the classification of the at least one anatomical feature, the determined confidence metric, and the determined motion vector.

  • Publication number: 20240341572
    Abstract: This disclosure enables various technologies for endoscopy, laparoscopy, and other endoscopic or scopic procedures and methods of manufacture and use thereof. For example, there may be a handheld unit (e.g., an endoscope, a laparoscope) configured to perform an endoscopic or scopic procedure in a cavity of an animate object (e.g., a mammal, an animal, a human, a pet) or an inanimate object (e.g., a tube, a container, a building, a vehicle, a plumbing item). As such, the handheld unit may be used in endoscopy, laparoscopy, colonoscopy, sinoscopy, hysteroscopy, arthroscopy, bronchoscopy, otolaryngoscopy, cystoscopy, ureteroscopy, and other suitable endoscopic or scopic procedures, whether for medical purposes (e.g., in a mammal, an animal, a human, a pet) or non-medical purposes (e.g., in a tube, a container, a building, a vehicle, a plumbing item). The handheld unit can be used together with a computing terminal (e.g.

  • Publication number: 20230380661
    Abstract: A portable endoscopic inspection system comprises an endoscope having a proximal end with a flanged eyepiece for observation and a distal end with a lens assembly for insertion into a region of interest. A light port transports incident light to the region of interest along an lighting pathway, and reflected light is transported along an imaging pathway from the lens assembly to the eyepiece. A wireless imaging unit comprises a light source which detachably couples to the light port for generating the incident light, and an imaging sensor for recording images of the reflected light from the eyepiece. The wireless imaging unit comprises a variable coupling system which mechanically couples the imaging sensor to the flanged eyepiece independent of the shape and/or size of the flange of the eyepiece.
