Title: Tetsuichirou Yamamoto: Inventor in Document Imaging and Data Transfer

Introduction

Tetsuichirou Yamamoto is an inventor associated with Tokyo, Japan. His listed portfolio includes 3 patents, with inventions focused on document reading and the transfer of scanned image data.

Latest Patents

“Document Reading Apparatus and Light Source Assembly Therefor” describes a document reader with a light-source assembly designed to reduce the number of parts and use light effectively. A plate has a reflective surface on one side and a fixing surface on the other, while a holder mounted on the reflective side secures the light source substantially parallel to that surface.

“Image Data Transfer System and Method” addresses how scan time and image-data transfer time can be coordinated without omitting image information. The system divides image data into higher-order and lower-order bits. It transfers the higher-order bits to a computer while scanning, temporarily stores the lower-order bits in memory, and transfers those bits after the first transfer is complete.

Career Highlights

Yamamoto is associated with NEC Corporation. His listed patent work reflects an emphasis on document imaging hardware and practical methods for managing scanned data.

Collaborations

His listed coworkers include Kouji Nakahara and Hiroya Ooki.

Conclusion

Tetsuichirou Yamamoto’s documented inventions address key aspects of scanning technology, from efficient light-source construction to coordinated image-data transfer.
