Description
Evrex Overhead Scanner delivers a powerful, yet affordable, book scanning solution for libraries. This leading-edge technology reduces book scanning to page turning creates flat scans from curved books, removes the user’s thumbs from the scan area, separates the left page from the right page; crops the images with smart tilt correction and auto-cropping.
