Students around the world are going to love the Scan Board concept scanner. Scan Board is a razor-thin gadget designed to scan the pages of books quickly and easily.
Scan Board was designed by Jo Jae-hwan and Shin Se-hwa and is easy to use. All you need to do is find the page you want to scan, set the Scan Board over it and close the cover. The device instantly scans the page, which can then be viewed before it is uploaded to a computer via USB.
Despite all of the technological advances of the past few years, scanning a page from a book still requires the use of a bulky printer. Everyone, especially college students, could benefit from a scanner that is small and portable. You can check out conceptual images of the Scan Board here.
