Image Stabilizer technology

I was working for Nikon, in the development center of camera department.
I changed companies almost ten years ago from Nikon to Canon. I was engaged in developing Image Stabilizer technology. At the final day as a Nikon employee, I gave a speech to everyone working my department. I remember the speech, something like this,
“I’ve been happy to be working as a member of Nikon to develop new cameras.”
“I chose this company because I liked cameras and liked to take pictures a lot.”
“I’ll never, ever forget the days working with you and days at this department.”
Oh, good old memory! I was in Tokyo not in Utsunomiya.
At that time, digital cameras and Image Stabilizer technology are not common. Recently, most of people take digital photos using a camera or a cellular phone. It’s becoming hard to find a person who uses a film camera. Now, I’m happy to know some of my friends using a digital camera with Image Stabilizer technology.
Recently, I checked US patents database and found twelve US patents I invented have been registered, ironically, after I left the company.
Those remind me of my hard working days and are still connecting me to camera industry.
You can find my patents on the US patent search site. Just copy the following seven digits numbers and paste it in.
