CAPSULE-TYPE IMAGING DEVICE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a capsule-type imaging device which accomplishes illumination and imaging singly along with easier miniaturization. SOLUTION: A light emitting element 20 for irradiating illumination light and an imaging element 21 for imaging the inside of a digestive tube are mounted on a three-dimensional molded circuit board 23 to build a camera module 2. An electric accumulation part 3 which comprises a capacitor and supplies power to the camera module 2 and a communication module 5 by discharging electric charge accumulated and a charging part 6 for charging the power accumulation part 3 with an induction electromotive force generated by an external magnetic field are formed integrally on the three-dimensional molded circuit board 8. This can provide a capsule-type imaging device which accomplishes illumination and imaging singly along with easier miniaturization. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
