Title: Innovations of Tao-Yen Wei

Introduction

Tao-Yen Wei is a notable inventor based in Hsinchu, Taiwan. He has made significant contributions to the field of optical disc technology. With a total of 4 patents to his name, his work has advanced the methods of reading and writing on optical discs.

Latest Patents

One of his latest patents is a focusing control method for reading/writing optical discs. This method allows for the creation of a label pattern on the label side of an optical disc under precise focus control. The process begins with loading the optical disc into a drive, ensuring the label side faces the optical head. The optical head is then actuated along a focusing direction, generating a light intensity addition signal in response to optical signals reflected from the disc. A closed-loop control operation is performed based on this signal, allowing for the definition of a label pattern on the optical disc.

Another significant patent is the method for determining focusing error gain for accessing optical discs. This method involves a light-scribe optical disc with a control feature zone that records reference information. The optical head moves within the label zone to determine a first focusing error gain and a first sub-beam addition signal. By further moving into the control feature zone, a second sub-beam addition signal is determined. The ratio of these signals is then used to estimate a second focusing error gain for accessing the control feature zone.

Career Highlights

Tao-Yen Wei is currently employed at Lite-On IT Corporation, where he continues to innovate in optical disc technology. His work has been instrumental in enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of optical disc operations.
