New camera pill by Philips

According to Cnet News:

“Philips Research is out with a new intelligent camera pill that can be electronically preprogrammed to deliver targeted doses of medicine to patients with digestive disorders such as Crohn’s disease, colitis, and colon cancer. The device comes in the form of an 11 mm x 26 mm capsule that patients swallow with water, just like any other pill. It’s designed to pass through the digestive tract of its own accord…”

Pretty cool.
