    A szöveg szerint a robotocska a laparószkópia (kamerával, vezetékkel egy kis lyukon át végrehajtott műtét) támogatására jött létre, hogy a sebész több szögből is láthassa a műveletet.

    This paper presents a theoretical and
    experimental analysis of miniature, wheeled, in vivo robots to support laparoscopy. The objective is to develop a wireless mobile imaging robot that can be placed inside the abdominal cavity during surgery. Such robots will allow the surgeon to view the surgical environment from multiple angles. The motion of these in vivo robots will not be constrained by the insertion incisions. Simulation and experimental analyses have led to a wheel design that can attain good mobility performance in in vivo conditions.
