This condition may potentially harm the patient seriously if the doctor who performs the procedure is unaware of the situation. This paper presents a technique on how to detect the formation of an endoscopic loop using stretch sensors. A custom-made loop detecting device using the stretch sensors was developed. Upon bending, sections of the endoscope will elongate while other sections will be compressed. The changes in dimension of the stretch sensor result in
