摘要

An endoscope includes an imaging unit configured to image a subject and output image data, a moving-image generation unit configured to generate moving-image data from the image data output from the imaging unit, a still-image generation unit configured to generate still-image data from the image data output from the imaging unit, a release instruction unit configured to receive an image-recording instruction from a user, a first wireless communication unit configured to sequentially change a wireless channel to transmit test data and transmit the still-image data to the reception device when the release instruction unit receives the image-recording instruction, a second wireless communication unit configured to transmit the moving-image data to the reception device using a wireless channel different from the wireless channel currently used by the first wireless communication unit, and a first setting unit configured to set a wireless channel determined from communication quality information.

1. An endoscope, comprising:
an imaging unit configured to image a subject and output image data; a moving-image generation unit configured to generate moving-image data from the image data output from the imaging unit; a still-image generation unit configured to generate still-image data from the image data output from the imaging unit; a release instruction unit configured to receive an image-recording instruction from a user; a first wireless communication unit configured to sequentially change a wireless channel to transmit test data used for detecting communication quality of each of a plurality of wireless channels to a reception device and transmit the still-image data to the reception device when the release instruction unit receives the image-recording instruction; a second wireless communication unit configured to transmit the moving-image data to the reception device using a wireless channel different from the wireless channel currently used by the first wireless communication unit; and a first setting unit configured to set a wireless channel in the second wireless communication unit, wherein the wireless channel is determined from communication quality information regarding the communication quality of the wireless channel used in the transmission of the test data.
