Tiny Injectable Camera System to Radically Miniaturize Endoscopes
 Regular arrangement of doublet lenses directly fabricated on a CMOS image sensor. Credit: Timo GissiblAt the Univesity of Stuttgart in Germany, scientists have created a lens System small e**ugh to be injected through a syringe. It can be attached to the distal end of a fiber optic cable, while at the proximal end a Tiny CMOS sensor captures the images. The hope is that the tech**logy will lead to flexible Endoscopes that can be delivered into the body through Tiny portholes to peek inside without causing too much damage.

The focal point is only 3mm away from the lenses and having a width of only*100 micrometers will allow for imaging of difficult to reach and detailed anatomical structures. The researchers published their study in journal Nature Photonics,*in which they “demonstrate the complete process chain, from optical design, manufacturing by femtosecond two-photon direct laser writing and testing to the application of multi-lens objectives with sizes around 100 µm, and validate their high performance and functionality by quantitative measurements of the modulation transfer function and aberrations.”  Image of a multi-lens System with a diameter of 600 µm surrounded by four doublet lenses with a diameter of 120 µm.
