  • Patent number: 11947786
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are related to a system and method of controlling a display of an image stream. The system may include a memory to store the image stream; the image stream may comprise a plurality of image frames. The system may further include a processor configured to execute the method. The moving image stream may be displayed to a user in an image stream display area of a screen and a frame rate control interface may be generated on a speed control area of the screen, such that the image stream display area is horizontally adjacent to the speed control area. An indication of a desired frame rate for displaying the image stream of the image frames may be received from the user, in that the frame rate may be selected according to a location of a pointing indicator in the speed control area.

  • Patent number: 8982205
    Abstract: A system and method may display an image stream, where an original image stream may be divided into two or more subset images streams, each subset image stream being displayed simultaneously or substantially simultaneously. The images may be displayed fused. The images may be collected from an ingestible capsule traversing the GI tract.

  • Patent number: 8142350
    Abstract: A device and system for in-vivo sensing having a relatively heavy part and a relatively light part such that the heavy and light part may be temporarily attached in-vivo. Detachment of the heavy part may be provided at a predetermined location along a body lumen. The light part upon detachment of the heavy part may for example float within a body lumen.

  • Patent number: 7995798
    Abstract: A device and method for capturing in-vivo images allows for size or distance estimations for objects within the images. According to one embodiment of the present invention there may be provided, in an in-vivo device, at least an imager, an illumination source to provide illumination for the imager, an irradiation source to emit for example a light beam or a laser beam in a body lumen and a processor to calculate, based on image illumination parameter values, an estimate of the size of objects in a body lumen.

  • Patent number: 7761134
    Abstract: A system and method to model a tracking curve of an in-vivo device capturing in-vivo data of the colon is provided. Data analysis is performed on a raw tracking curve to identify one or more milestone data points that correspond to defined locations in the colon. A modeled path may be defined between and along the selected milestone data points. Raw tracking curve data may be translated to modeled data along the modeled path. The modeled tracking curve may be displayed alongside a streaming display of captured in-vivo image frames of the colon.

  • Patent number: 7628753
    Abstract: A method for in vivo sensing of a body lumen such as a lumen in the upper GI tract is provided. The method may include, for example, inserting a sensing device into a subject's body lumen, positioning the subject in a horizontal or other suitable position, and receiving data transmitted from the sensing device.

  • Patent number: 7585283
    Abstract: A device and method is described for enabling an examining device to pass through an abnormally configured body lumen. The device may pass through a body lumen while maintaining an initial dimension. Upon encounter with an abnormally configured body lumen, the device may be depleted and take on a final dimension after a predetermined time period, regardless of its current orientation with respect to the body lumen, so that the device may pass through and vacate the abnormally configured body lumen shortly after the predetermined time period may have elapsed.
