Abstract:
An endoscope apparatus includes image sensors, a power supply unit, a failure detection unit, and a controller. The power supply unit supplies power independently to the image sensors. The failure detection unit detects a failure in each of the image sensors. The controller controls the power supply unit to stop power supply to an image sensor in which a failure is detected at the failure detection unit.
