Patent number: 7721116Abstract: Provided is a security system for managing which CD-ROM is used for a game device not having identifying information in advance. When a game device accesses a server via a communication network, a device ID, which is issued from the server, is stored in a nonvolatile memory This device ID is generated based on the time and date when the game device accesses the server via a communication network (e.g. Dec. 10, 2000 at 21:05:37). The server associates a serial number (SN) of a CD-ROM used in the game device and a device ID of the game device with each other and registers them on a database. This makes it possible to manage which CD-ROM is used in each game device.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2005Date of Patent: May 18, 2010Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha SegaInventors: Takao Miyoshi, Akio Setsumasa

Patent number: 6226008Abstract: A game device enabling adjustment of the virtual viewpoint displaying a game character to be positioned to view the surroundings of the character in a broad range. When the manipulation character C stands still, the viewpoint of the virtual cameral 30 can move along the face of the exterior sphere 40B in accordance with manipulations of the game player. Upon collision with an obstacle, this virtual camera approaches the character in the direction of the face of the interior sphere 40A. However, the virtual camera does not approach the character C beyond the interior sphere.Type: GrantFiled: September 3, 1998Date of Patent: May 1, 2001Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Sega EnterprisesInventors: Yasuhiro Watanabe, Akio Setsumasa, Takuya Matsumoto, Takao Miyoshi

Patent number: 4508761Abstract: A polymer-coated particulate inorganic material, e.g. graphite, graphite fluoride or molybdenum disulfide, is obtained by preparing a reaction system containing a liquid medium, fine particles of the inorganic material, at least one vinylic monomer which undergoes radical polymerization or copolymerization and a polymerization initiator and allowing the vinylic monomer(s) in the reaction system to undergo polymerization and to bond to the surfaces of the inorganic material particles by graft polymerization. To enhance the efficiency of graft polymerization to thereby realize uniform coating even when the inorganic material is very low in surface energy as typified by graphite fluoride, the pH of the reaction system is adjusted to a value ranging from 5 to 9 by adding alkali to the reaction system soon after the addition of the polymerization initiator or alternatively by treating the inorganic material with alkali in advance of preparation of the reaction system.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 1983Date of Patent: April 2, 1985Assignee: Central Glass Company LimitedInventors: Takao Miyoshi, Akira Sakanoue
