A method and system for identifying a GI (gastrointestinal) part associated with a location of a capsule device within a human GI tract are disclosed. According to this method, one or more structured-light images captured by the capsule device when the capsule device is inside the human GI tract are received, where the structured-light images are captured by projecting a plurality of structured light beams from the capsule device onto a surrounding lumen wall. Distance information is derived based on the structured-light images for a target set of measuring rays from the capsule device to the surrounding lumen wall. The GI part associated with the location of the capsule device associated with a distance-measuring frame related to said one or more structured-light images is determined based on the distance information, where the GI part belongs to a group comprising a transverse colon.
