This scanner is capable of scanning up to an A3 page size.
It can quickly digitise books and documents, a small book like the one shown takes about 30mins.
This equipment has a built in book slope and will digitally flatten out book pages. This meaning books can sit naturally without braking the spine which can happen on a normal flatbed scanner.
It also has a built in OCR software (OCR stands for Optical Character Recognition). This software will quickly transfer the scanned images into editable Word/PDF/TIFF files. This makes the scanned file searchable, which is very handy for research.
It's not limited to books and documents as it will also scan a wide range of archival materials, even photographs can be digitised using this the non-destructive scanning method.
This piece of equipment does dismantle and will be brought down to our events for digitising of people's collections on site.
