Description

A line of text with a pen, not the whole page

A pen scanner does not capture the full page, only what it is moved over: a single line, a paragraph, a quote or a number. That is handy when you need just one passage from a book, invoice or newspaper article and starting up a full scanner makes no sense. At 90 grams the Air 8 is small enough to carry around like an ordinary pen.

Who this pen scanner is for

Students and researchers collecting quotes from books; office staff picking single lines or figures from invoices and documents; journalists and translators working with printed text; and anyone who would rather not retype text by hand.
