Patent number: 10708447Abstract: An image forming system includes a first mobile terminal and an image forming apparatus. The first mobile terminal transmits first image data by carrying out first wireless communication. The image forming apparatus receives the first image data by carrying out the first wireless communication and forms an image on the basis of the first image data. The first mobile terminal includes first storage, a first communicator, and a first setting section. The image forming apparatus includes second storage, a second communicator, a second setting section, and an image forming section. The first and second storages both hold first communication setting information and are respectively able to hold second and third communication setting information.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 2018Date of Patent: July 7, 2020Assignee: Oki Data CorporationInventor: Kenji Sawaguchi

Patent number: 6674438Abstract: An entertainment apparatus has a manual controller for entering control information, a main memory for loading therein a program and information for use by the program, a CPU for performing processing according to the program based on control information entered by the manual controller, a GTE and a GPU for generating at least image information based on the processing performed by the CPU, and a display monitor for displaying image information generated by the GTE and the GPU. A method of adding information for use by a program run on the entertainment apparatus has the step of adding additional information by loading the additional information via a memory card or a portable information terminal into the main memory of the entertainment apparatus. The method allows game characters, backgrounds, etc. that can be used by a game program, for example, to be increased in number or added to permit the user to enjoy a game that is rich in variety even if the game program is of existing nature.Type: GrantFiled: October 6, 1999Date of Patent: January 6, 2004Assignee: Sony Computer Entertainment Inc.Inventors: Tetsuji Yamamoto, Kenji Sawaguchi, Yuji Shinkai

Patent number: 6595860Abstract: A portable information terminal can effectively utilize game results and is arranged to be multifunctional. When result information is transmitted from a terminal to another terminal, the destination terminal adds the transmitted result information to result information which has already been held thereby. The items of result information are sorted in the order of scores, and score data are updated. Of the updated result information, the result information having the same identification number as the identification number of the terminal is displayed on a display unit of the terminal.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 1999Date of Patent: July 22, 2003Assignee: Sony Computer Entertainment Inc.Inventors: Tetsuji Yamamoto, Kenji Sawaguchi, Yuji Shinkai
