Ok, THIS was absolutely precious! I was at the edge of my seat, whimpering as though I watching a child open their gift and learning how it works... but then broke down laughing at the 12:50 markpoint when you said this little scanner is something "you can stick in your thermal typewriter bag"... so matter-of-factly, as though EVERYONE has a thermal typewriter bag! 🤣 Loved the video Joe, and yes I clicked the thumbs up button, as always!
Next video...make your own copy machine! 1. Get a box. 2. Find a used 3-D printer. 3. Replace filament head with this scanner.4. Install a sheet of glass... etc, etc, etc..
Wondering what would happen if you took the film back off a large format camera and tried to scan the aerial image from the lens.. You would have to do under a dark cloth of course.
i get one but error light for calibration dont turn off and i cant make nothing sadly. there s other model that have auto scan feature. instead manually thing
I am just here because I am wondering if these can do a distortion free scan. What makes me wonder is that a hand might not move the wand entirely straight. This would require some sort of software and possibly hardware trick to correct.
Lots of Chinese knockoffs of these magic wand scanners on Amazon for around $60-$80 now. I have one now that I will say is pretty easy to use, but like you showed scanning your 1 long page, the image looks arced and not straight. Well there is no way to keep a consistent motion going down the page as well as keep the scanner in a perfectly straight line. I thought this would be good to scan arcade graphics on the sides of a game. With the inconsistency of being able to move it, keep steady, and keep straight, it makes it impossible to do more than 1 image and stitch them together. The variations are just too great to line up in any easy way in Photoshop or an image program. I thought this would work, and it does to an extent for single page documents that fit within it's boundaries. Go above that and it's just junk.

I couldn't find anybody that would show you how to set the date and time on this. Kudos to you, man you're the best! Everybody else sucks!!

Yay! I’m so glad it works well and you got a good video out of it. Enjoy!
Very Nice Video, I Bought One Of Those, I’m Still Waiting On Mine To Be Delivered. It Looks Like It Will Be A Great Asset.❤
What a lovely care package gift!
respect for reading the prospects first! ❤

That’s a neat idea!
This is like the HP Capshare (which lawyers loved, after it was discontinued).
It could work well for taking newspaper cuttings, especially where column length negates a flatbed scanner from doing it in one pass.
My grandfather used to do that for his genealogical research. His scanner was much different than this one, but the same concept.

looks like something a student would use to copy from the teachers answer book real quick
How does it do with images mixed into a document?
It does good! And the software on CD-ROM is an OCR program.

Unfortunately, there is distortion.
I have one, but the pictures comes out with lines. How can I fix that?
Other than making sure the sensor bar is clean, there’s nothing else to be done, unfortunately.

Does this work for Android?
Using a micro-SD card reader it should work with any mobile device.
Is that all it does is scanning
Yes!
