This concept despreately needs two things: proof of concept and formal development.

And, clearly, I need a proofreader.

Nice idea! great!

in my opinion, good aesthetics, however, potentially poor functionality. i’m no expert but 1/ the black strip that i’m assuming contains the technology seems rather unfeasible to actually house the scanning technology plus a battery etc. 2/ doesn’t a scanner need a dark place to operate, hence the closing lid? when the lid is open on my scanner, the unwanted light creates a scan that is, um, crap tbh.

you can skanned.

yes. i agree with you.
but i thank it is count to use

What I’m mot worried about is how you can tell which page you’re scanning. But if this ever came out, I’d buy it in a heartbeat!

Where can we buy it?
How much is it?

Let’s just shoot a laser across a piece of glass to scan and maintain images. Yes. And then not explain how that works. At all.

If I knew it was this easy to get a concept known, nicely rendering a slab of glass and adding ridiculously impossible functions, I might as well lower my own standards.

Maybe it’s time to make that thin granite slab/foot masseuse/cold ice cream stone I’ve always been wanting to make.

Love the idea I’m Jealous please continue will be first in line to buy.

I have some designs of my own would like to contact you for a critique.

Thanks fallow Designer

And I propose a Star Trek style teleporter. You’ve already seen it in the movies, so by this artist’s logic, it must be possible.

To all the people saying this technology is impossible you’re wrong. Its easy, it been around for a while now. I will admit that the battery is an issue plus reprojecting the image onto the glass like it shows, but a black and white scanner like this without the display part is very possible and I think you can already buy one.

why not embed a series of gradually incremented micro-prisms, or mirrors positioned at 90 Degrees?

Rediculous? Impossible? I’m sure in the age of fibre optics and keyhole surgery etc you could just shine a light in and get light from ‘around the corner’ to bounce back.

Then use software to reconstruct the perfect image. Imaging software is thankfully just about at this stage. I’d see how they do it (photoshop).

I would propably close the book to keep it dark, but I want to scan covers too of course.. provide a dense cloth for cleaning, which also functions as a light blanket.

note that the scanner DOES operate in the dark- the book is closed around it.

thank you!

You would carry that around?

is this available yet?
cannot find any information.
But it seems that ppl are using camera to scan and get good result.
