I thought this was a Photoshop contest joke when I saw it, but it's real! There's a pill equipped with two cameras, one of each side, a battery, and a flash that you can swallow to get 2600 images of the inside of your Esophagus in about 15 minutes. Sure, I bet you're thinking that's huge pill to swallow (pun intended), but it's less invasive and more comfortable than the "camera on a stick through your nose" endoscopy that has been the norm for almost 20 years.
