Lumen-traveling biological interface devices and associated methods and
systems are described. Lumen-traveling biological interface devices
capable of traveling within a body lumen may include a propelling
mechanism to produce movement of the lumen-traveling device within the
lumen, electrodes or other electromagnetic transducers for detecting
biological signals and electrodes, coils or other electromagnetic
transducers for delivering electromagnetic stimuli to stimulus responsive
tissues. Lumen-traveling biological interface devices may also include
additional components such as sensors, an active portion, and/or control
circuitry.
