Abstract

A swallowable capsule with a camera and a memory for imaging the colon (Figure 4). Standard semiconductor memory (426), or memories made of standard memories processes or processes modified from standard process by adopting comprehensible silicon planar technology process steps, is used. This is made possible by the use of an optimal type of image compression (424) that can be performed with limited processing power and limited memory or without requiring a full size frame buffer. Also, controls on the number of images taken are used in one embodiment.
