Capsule endoscopy is a useful device which will be potentially provided with DDS (drug delivery system) function and controlled to sample the diseased tissue, as well as an observation device and/or a therapeutic procedure applied to the digestive organs. The capsule endoscopy involves many problems to be solved, stemming from the motion mechanism and the attitude control in the internal organs, although many efforts have been done to the practical usage of the capsule endoscopy. In the present study we propose a prototype of the capsule endoscopy which is self-propelled by using a linear motor. The preliminary experiments reasonably confirm that the linear motor method has an advantage in the operation of capsule, especially in the back and forth movement inside model organs.
