This scanner is a portable handheld scanner that allows you to scan the contents of books, letters, recipies and more by gliding the scanner over the surface of the page. Rather than having it hooked up to a PC while you scan, the portable scanner has a microSD card slot where you can connect up an SD card and copy images directly from page on to the memory.

The scanner can capture images up to 8.5 inches by 50 inches in length and is capableof capturing at either 600dpi or 300dpi.

To transfer the images to your computer you can either take out the microSD card and connect that up to a card reader, or attach the portable scanner up to your computer via a USB cable and drag and drop the files as needed.

The portable scanner is powered by AA batteries with a single set keeping the device powered for about 180 scans.
