  • Abstract
    Exploration of the colon with semi-autonomous devices represents a challenge for present researchers in this field. Characteristics, conditions and topography of the colon are unpredictable and sensory feedback from a device within the colon is limited, therefore one key challenge is to provide reliable data on which to base decision-making.
