VISUAL INSPECTION DEVICE

A visual inspection device includes a body having a support portion and a grip portion extending from the support portion. The device also includes a flexible cable having a first end portion coupled to the body and a second end portion, and a camera assembly coupled to the second end portion of the flexible cable. The camera assembly includes an image sensor operable to transmit image data through the flexible cable. The device further includes a display supported by the support portion of the body. The display is electrically connected to the flexible cable to display image date from the image sensor. The device is powered by a rechargeable battery pack removably coupled to the body.

Methods of Performing Internal Body Imaging

One embodiment provides a system, method, and wireless endoscope for performing internal imaging. A first portion of a wireless endoscope including at least a lens and a light emitter for physical connection to a second portion of the wireless endoscope is received. The first portion is interchangeable. The first portion is inserted into a body while the second portion remains outside the body. The wireless endoscope is powered on in response to receiving user input from a user. A distal end proximate the lens is illuminated utilizing a light in communication with the light emitter. Video inside the body is captured utilizing a camera in communication with the lens. The video is wireless communicated to a receiver associated with a display.

Wireless Viewing System and Method

One embodiment provides a device, method, and wireless viewing system. The wireless viewing system includes a light emitter integrated in a first portion. The wireless viewing system also includes a lens positioned proximate the light emitter in the first portion. The light emitter and the lens are inserted into a body. The first portion is interchangeable. The wireless viewing system further includes a connector physically securing the first portion to the second portion. The second portion is not inserted into the body. The wireless viewing system further includes a camera capturing video content received through the lens.
