| Microelectronic Pill | | | | | | 1.INTRODUCTION The invention of the transistor enabled the first radio telemetry capsules‚ which utilized simple circuits for in vivo telemetric studies of the gastro-intestinal tract. These units could only transmit from a single sensor channel‚ and were difficult to assemble due to the use of discrete components. The measurement parameters consisted of temperature‚ pH or pressure‚ and the first attempts of conducting real-time noninvasive

interesting facts about the pill bug. The pill bug is also known as sowbugs‚ woodlice‚ or by their scientific name Armadillidiidae vulgare . Some of their physical characteristics include a hard black‚ brown‚ or gray shell (depending on the species being studied)‚ sharply angled antennae‚ seven pairs of legs‚ flattened or round-backed profile and an oval shape. Their head has 4 pairs of mouthparts and is followed by the 7 main trunk segments‚ which bear the walking limbs. Pill bugs only grow from 0.2

The antennae is used to sense the environment around it‚ even if it is in ball shape form. The advantages of this is the pillbug

of very large size. The later modification is similar to the above instrument but is smaller in size due to the application of existing semiconductor fabrication technologies. These technologies led to the formation of "MICROELECTRONIC PILL". Microelectronic pill is basically a multichannel sensor used for remote biomedical measurements using micro technology. This is used for the real-time measurement parameters such as temperature‚ pH‚ conductivity and dissolved oxygen. The sensors are fabricated

I aroused with a thumping headache‚ hoping my situation was just a deplorable dream. I was out of fortuity; I was stuck in the middle of the forest with Maple‚ the trail horse. I took a deep breath‚ stood up and held my phone to the empyrean. No bars‚ how typical I mentally conceived.
