Abstract: A device for determining the longitudinal and angular position
of a rotationally symmetrical apparatus (3) when guided inside a
longitudinal element surrounding the same, including an imaging
optical navigation sensor that measures the motion of the underlying
surface by comparing successive images, and translates
this image translation into a measurement of the longitudinal

surface passing underneath the sensor, therefore allowing to establish
the absolute position of the instrument, or to identify
which instrument was inserted or in what cavity a tracking instrument
was inserted. The device comprises a light source (31)
