Abstract

See full text

An embodiment of a system for providing illumination for an endoscope device includes a light source comprising laser bundles each having laser light emitters, an electromagnetic sensor embedded within the light source to sense electromagnetic energy emitted from at least one laser light emitter within each of the laser bundles, and a control circuit in electronic communication with the electromagnetic sensor and at least one laser light emitter. The light source sequentially pulses electromagnetic energy in a plurality of individual electromagnetic partitions. The electromagnetic sensor receives electromagnetic energy from at least one laser light emitter and measures an amount of electromagnetic energy generated by at least one laser light emitter.
