Patent number: 9197782Abstract: An image processing device includes a main memory, a parameter register, an image processor, and a parameter transfer unit. The main memory stores therein a parameter used in image processing. The parameter register temporarily stores therein the parameter. The image processor executes the image processing on image data by using the parameter stored in the parameter register. The parameter transfer unit transfers the parameter stored in the main memory to the parameter register during a period in which the image processing is not executed.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2014Date of Patent: November 24, 2015Assignee: RICOH COMPANY, LIMITEDInventor: Daichi Kodama
