    Abstract

    A position and orientation sensing system is developed for the feedback control of endoscopic instruments in advanced flexible endoscopes. The images that are taken by the endoscopic camera are used to match a kinematic model to the observed instrument. Using the pseudo-inverse of the Jacobian of the forward kinematics, the estimated state of the model is continuously updated so as to match feature points from the images to the model. An experiment was performed inside a colon model, in which reference markers with known locations were touched with the instrument. The root mean square position estimation errors were 1.7 mm, 1.2 mm and 3.6 mm in the horizontal (x), vertical (y), and away-from-camera (z) directions, respectively.
