A Precessing-Coin-like Rotary Actuator for Distal Endoscope Scanners: Proof-of-Concept Study

A Precessing-Coin-like Rotary Actuator for Distal Endoscope Scanners: Proof-of-Concept Study

This paper presents, for the first time, a rotary actuator functionalized by an inclined disc rotor that serves as a distal optical scanner for endoscopic probes, enabling side-viewing endoscopy in luminal organs using different imaging/analytic modalities such as optical coherence tomography and Ra...
