Abstract
An in-vivo imaging device having a closed housing containing internal components including two optical heads located on rigid portions of a circuit board connected by a flexible portion. The housing consists of a connecting sleeve located between two domes. The in-vivo imaging device is assembled by positioning at least part of the circuit board inside the connecting sleeve and folding the circuit board so that the optical heads cover ends of the connecting sleeve. The domes are placed over the optical heads and joined to the connecting sleeve.
