In-vivo image acquiring apparatus, receiving apparatus, and in-vivo information acquiring system

An in-vivo information acquiring system, comprising:

• an in-vivo image acquiring apparatus that includes
• a first imager that serves to acquire image data,
• a second imager that serves to acquire image data which is formed independent of the image data acquired by the first imager,
• a transmission data generator that generates transmission data by receiving the image data from the first and the second imagers and adding identification data, which allows for identification of the imager, to each piece of the image data, and
• a transmitter that performs radio transmission based on the transmission data generated by the transmission data generator;
• and
• a receiving apparatus that includes
• a receiver that receives data transmitted by the transmitter,
• an identifying unit that identifies which imager picks up image data included in the data received by the receiver based on the identification data added,
• a storage unit that has divided storage areas and stores the image data in the storage areas according to the imagers identified by the identifying unit;
• and
• a compressor that performs moving-image compression separately on the image data among the image data received by the receiver according to the imager which is identified by the identifying unit as the imager picking up the image data.
