Title: Innovations of Atsushi Hasebe
Introduction
Atsushi Hasebe is a notable inventor based in Kanagawa, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the field of picture signal processing, holding a total of 7 patents. His work primarily focuses on enhancing the efficiency and quality of image transmission and processing.
Latest Patents
Hasebe's latest patents include a picture signal processing apparatus that features a matrix switcher. This device selectively seizes multiple compressed pictures and converts P-frames in a Group of Pictures (GOP) into I-frames while modifying the prediction data of B-frames in the GOP. The apparatus includes a decoder that expands the compressed pictures into their original forms. An input buffer memory converts the picture signals into component signals while adjusting the transfer rate. Additionally, a picture processing unit performs various operations on the picture signals, and an encoder compresses the processed signals. The output buffer memory then adjusts the transfer rate of the sent-out data, which consists of the compressed processed signals. This innovative system allows for smooth switching of compressed pictures processed by inter-frame compression and supports a wide range of picture formats, from still images to moving pictures.
Another significant patent is for an apparatus that supplies a leading-end signal from leading-end memory. This information signal transmission device transmits information signals to multiple requesting parties. The leading-end signals are pre-stored in a versing-up memory, and upon receiving a request, an output signal from a buffer memory unit for time axis expansion is sent to the requesting party after the output signal from the versing-up memory unit.
