A system and method may determine the orientation of an in-vivo imaging device relative to the earth's gravitation field. Some embodiments may enable indication of specific locations where other methods provide non-satisfactory imaging coverage. The system may include an in-vivo imaging system with a container or shell containing an orientation object. The container may be placed in at least one optical dome or optical field of an in-vivo imaging device, such as an autonomous capsule. The location of the orientation object's image on the in-vivo imaging device imager, as well as size of the image, may be determined as functions of the location of the orientation object inside the container, for each image acquired.
An in vivo imaging system comprising:
A system for determining orientation of an in-vivo device, said system comprising:
A method for determining orientation of an in-vivo device, the method comprising:
