The Linear Book Scanner is a low-cost page-turning book scanner. The design is open-source, so anyone can build one.

A book moves back and forth over the machine.

Each time across, a vacuum sucks a page from one side to the other.

The pages are scanned as they travel across two imaging sensors.

The software produces a searchable PDF of your book!
