Claim 0:
1. A controlled motion capsule comprising:
a swallowable case,
a controller monitoring at least one data,
a compartment enclosing a shape changing gel,
the shape changing gel comprising a reversible component with at least one hydrophilic component;
the shape-changing gel having an interior material and an outermost layer, the outermost layer having a capacity to protect the interior material;
at least one nonionizing radiation emitter proximal to the shape changing gel;
the controller determining at least one nonionizing radiation value in response to the at least one monitored data;
based on the at least one nonionizing radiation value, the controller variably energizes the at least one nonionizing radiation emitter to at least one level selected from the group of an intensity level and a duration level;
the shape changing gel expanding and contracting to a three-dimensional volume dependent on the at least one level;
wherein motion of the capsule through a tubular structure in an animal is variably decelerated by the expansion and contraction of the shape changing gel.
