In this article, we will focus on one of the most interesting areas of innovation development of modern means of monitoring and control in real time - micro-optical systems

In the well-known and already well-established micro-optical systems created in recent years, with a deep and detailed analysis of the scanned material innovative provisions which could be implemented in the case of professional use TRIZ methods and techniques to model the ways and options for further innovative development

As a preface, consider the following information

Israeli companies Tower Semiconductors and Medigus reported in 2010 on the finalization of the world's smallest medical cameras, designed for a variety of endoscopic procedures.

This message can be considered the beginning of an era of innovation development of micro-optics in a variety of medical diagnostic technologies dynamic, real-time

Sensors for camcorders were created at the factory Tower Semiconductors 0.18 micron technology, and the very beginning of the camcorder produced by Medigus.

Themselves are disposable camera, which speaks about the perfection of technology and extremely low production costs.

First ready samples were sent for testing a number of clients. Mass production was planned and actually started in 2010.

It took 3 years and according to news agencies shows that this technology trend is crucial and its development is all the faster pace

Here is the latest post

Federal Agency for the Control of Food and Drug Administration approved for use in the United States next generation video-capsule SB3 Pillcam, designed for endoscopy of the small intestine.

Capsules are a new generation, developed by Given Imaging, designed for the diagnosis and monitoring of Crohn's disease, bleeding in the small intestine and anemia associated with iron deficiency.

The new instrument resolution camera is increased by 30% compared with the previous model.

In addition, significantly improved the function of the small intestine of three-dimensional modeling technology adaptive frame rate, according to The Marker.

With all that video-capsule is an innovative breakthrough in optical technology, it should be noted that the visual diagnosis may not always provide all the information necessary to draw final conclusions about the appropriateness of a particular treatment option

That is a factor miniaturization is a major breakthrough, but to make any conclusions on the same stomach or intestine is not always possible, as there is no chemical component in the assessment of the situation

And then there is a place for the application of TRIZ methods and techniques for transforming great ideas miniaturization in micro-miniaturization of optical chemical monitoring of the stomach or intestines

That is, put an inventive problem in the application of the principle of encapsulation for the implementation of a miniature chemical process monitoring in real time

Here is an example of technical solutions that thanks to the tools of TRIZ solve the problem of non-contact control of the parameters of the chemical state of the mucous membrane of the stomach or intestines, while maintaining the dimensional factors of the microcapsules and the design principles of the system of remote video cameras

From the illustrations it is evident that in the single optical system and chemical analysis system disposable same principle applies to the coating solenoid analysis of the object located at the axis of the solenoid

Chemical analytical capsule has real application in animal husbandry to actively monitor the status of the gastric juice of the cow

Readers interested in the methodology of design of the optical system of the transition to a chemical-analytical system can get the information from the descriptions of the inventions listed hereinafter Article

VIVO DETERMINATION OF ACIDITY LEVELS
Abstract
A bolus for use in a ruminant animal's reticulum includes a cavity (100) configured to receive ruminal fluids present in the stomach. The cavity has walls (110) of a dielectric material and is encircled by a coil member (120), which is configured to subject the ruminal fluids to an electro-magnetic field. A Sensor element (310) measures the electro-magnetic field's influence on the ruminal fluids and thus register an electromagnetic property representative of an acidity level of said fluids. A transmitter (410) transmits a wireless output signal (SD) reflecting the acidity measure.

DETERMINATION OF ATTRIBUTES OF LIQUID SUBSTANCES
Abstract
A monitoring unit (100) that determines parameters (p1, p2) of an attribute (P) of a liquid substance flowing (F) through a dielectric conduit (110) includes plural coil members (121, 122) encircling the dielectric conduit (110) that subjects a flow of the liquid substance to plural different electromagnetic fields (B(f)), and under influence thereof measuring circuitry registers corresponding impedance measures (z(f)) of the liquid substance. A processor (130) derives the parameters (p1, p2) of the attribute (P) based on the registered impedance measures (z(f)).
