Publication number: 20210113056Abstract: The subject matter disclosed in the present invention discloses a medical imaging device comprising at least two cameras. The medical imaging device comprises an elongated and narrow distal tip connected to a rigid elongated shaft member, wherein the distal tip can comprise a front camera and a first side camera. The cameras of the disclosed medical imaging device can be configured to provide variable cameras' magnifications, which in some cases may vary from one camera to another. The distal tip can comprise some optical gear required for the medical procedures. The optical gear located in the distal tip can comprise cameras, lenses and light sources required for the camera functioning. The cameras of the medical imaging device may be provided with dissimilarity in the cameras' magnification factors. Such dissimilarities are used to show the same object in the same size in a panoramic image captured simultaneously by multiple cameras, as the multiple cameras have multiple distances to the object.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 3, 2019Publication date: April 22, 2021Inventors: Avraham LEVY, Moshe LEVI, Victor LEVIN, Golan SALMAN, Amram AIZENFELD, Leonid KRIVOPISK
