Pressure Modulation Improves Locomotion of an Expanding Robot for Colonoscopy

Colonoscopy plays a pivotal role in early colorectal disease detection. It is hindered by procedural difficulties such as friction between colonoscope and colon wall as well as maneuverability issues. Expanding robots offer a promising alternative, aiming for a reduced risk of tissue damage and redu...
