Patent number: 10536575Abstract: A communication device has a storage, a GPS receiver, a communicator, and a controller. The storage stores a planned travel route. The GPS receiver receives GPS signals. The communicator communicates with the outside. The controller sets an area including the planned travel route as a target area, and when an out-of-area state has begun in which the location of the communication device falls outside the target area, transmits information indicating the location of the communication device as observed when the out-of-area state began to a previously registered transmission destination.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2018Date of Patent: January 14, 2020Assignee: KYOCERA Document Solutions Inc.Inventor: Toshimasa Takaoka

Patent number: 10255010Abstract: An image forming system includes an image forming apparatus and a management server. The image forming apparatus reads a surface image of an ID card, outputs a copy print including the ID card surface image and address information that indicates an address in a management domain managed by the management server, and transmits card copy information including the ID card surface image and the address information to the management server together with a registration request. The management server receives the registration request and the card copy information, stores the ID card surface image and the address information in the card copy information, into a predetermined storage device in association with each other, receives a browsing request, and identifies address information included in the browsing request, and transmits a surface image of an ID card associated with the identified address information, to a transmission source of the browsing request.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2017Date of Patent: April 9, 2019Assignee: KYOCERA Document Solutions Inc.Inventor: Toshimasa Takaoka
