Okay, it may be impractically expensive, but Atiz’s Book Snap is still a pretty cool book digitization solution. You put digital cameras in each of the housings on top, and then place the book in the cradle at the bottom which is specially designed to hold the book flat. The result, according to Atiz, is a far superior scan compared to what you could get with trying to use a flatbed scanner.
The downside is that the unit is $1,595 . . . plus, you have to supply your own digital cameras. Ouch. On the other hand, I can imagine someone with an extensive library he wanted to digitize going for this, or perhaps some cooperative arrangement where a group of bibliophiles share the cost (not to mention the possible use by smaller institutions, though I imagine copyright concerns would be a major deterrent there).
Dear Sir:
Can you tell me where I can buy the Book Snap.
Best regards,
