Abstract[English]
The invention provides a system (100) for operating a light source for an endoscope, a method for operating such a light source, and a method for training an artificial neural network. The system (100) comprises: a light source (10); an analysis module (31) configured to receive at least one image from a camera unit (21) of the endoscope (20) and to make a determination, based thereon, whether the endoscope (20) is currently inserted into a patient's body (1) or not; and a lighting control module (32) configured to control the light source (10) based on the determination of the analysis module (32).[French]
L'invention concerne un système (100) pour faire fonctionner une source de lumière pour un endoscope, un procédé pour faire fonctionner une telle source de lumière, et un procédé pour entraîner un réseau neuronal artificiel. Le système (100) comprend : une source de lumière (10); un module d'analyse (31) configuré pour recevoir au moins une image provenant d'une unité de caméra (21) de l'endoscope (20) et pour déterminer, sur la base de celle-ci, si l'endoscope (20) est actuellement inséré dans le corps d'un patient (1) ou non; et un module de commande d'éclairage (32) configuré pour commander la source de lumière (10) sur la base de la détermination du module d'analyse (32).
