    Wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) is a noninvasive method for imaging the gastrointestinal tract, allowing for precise diagnosis without stigma.

  • 2

    eNCApsulate utilizes neural cellular automata (NCA) models to enable real-time segmentation and depth estimation directly on capsule endoscopes.

  • 3

    NCA models achieve 29.1% higher accuracy in bleeding segmentation compared to existing small-scale segmentation models in capsule endoscopy.

  • 4

    The proposed approach allows for the miniaturization of depth estimation models, making them feasible for deployment on a microcontroller within the capsule.

  • 5

    eNCApsulate represents a significant advancement in WCE by integrating diagnosis and localization capabilities directly on the capsule device.
