Abstract

A method for capturing in vivo images by a control device which operates by at least one processor includes: acquiring 1dimensional (D) images acquired by scanning in vivo samples in one direction from a confocal microscopy including a focus variable lens; estimating motion information of the in vivo sample from the 1D images; generating a driving signal for synchronizing and varying a focal plane of the focus variable lens with a motion of the in vivo sample based on the estimated motion information, and controlling the focus variable lens with the driving signal; and acquiring, from the confocal microscopy, continuous images of the in vivo sample scanned in the focal plane varied according to the driving signal.
