  • It wouldn't be much faster, but it would let you do something else while the book is scanning.

    I'd love to have one with or without it, but if I knew how to make an auto page turner I think it'd be worth it.

  • Nice, I want to build a DIY book scanner, but I REALLY want to build a DIY Microfilm scanner to digitize our towns microfilm.

  • excelente trabajo

  • @212alc: agreed. At the end the phrase "its the computer working not you" would apply to the scanner itself too. Even if the book took hours to scan with a slow automatic system you could sleep while it worked.

    But I must say this whole project is incredibly cool.

  • is this issue that an automatic page turner would be faster, or is it more of a laziness issue? it seems to me people would prefer an automatic page turner so that they do not have to perform the repetitive action of turning the page themselves.
