Just saw it. Totally amazed

Still though, I wouldn't be able to wait and purchase a DIY kit. These peeps at the uni actually want a made-by-me DIY setup, and they want the concept done now in terms of "TBA: NOW". Now this looks quite interesting. The concept is small, almost compact-like; if done correctly I can set up 2 or 3 of those in one room and quicken the processing of stuff. Hell.. I was calculating 2 months of processing text into image; with something as little as this multiplied by 3 the whole text-to-image would take weeks.

THANK YOU SO MUCH, MAN (: much appreciated

NOW THIS IS MORE LIKE IT

A cheap design that can be done even cheaper.

now that you mention it, I googled "DIY Bookscanner" and found some pretty neat, easy designs. In some threads they have the same conclusion. Flatbed scanners suck .

AWESOME, it seems this concept was already exploited. I don't need to start from scratch. Thanks, people.


Cheers,
