Capsule endoscopes in practical use are being driven by a battery. Also it relies on movement of the body peristalsis. It is expected to be able to freely move can reduce examination time also by the installation of the Induction mechanism. It is difficult to cover all only by the capacity of the battery in terms of adding various functions. It is expected to be equipped with a wireless power transfer technology as its solution. In this paper examined the mutual impact for mounting a Induction and the wireless power transfer mechanism simultaneously. Received power of wireless power transfer mechanism decreased. However 30mW or more necessary to drive the capsule endoscope was obtained. Driving force of the Induction mechanism was improved.
