Good to know...
Thanks for the video (great reference)... ✌
Thanks Grer!
Look at you, fancy! Cheers!
Thanks, yes pretty cool device
Czur products is incredibly good. Thank you Tony !
Thanks Andrea! love it! .. so fast to scan
VERY interesting and impressive, Tony, thanks!
It would have been nice if you showed an export to Word, then viewed on-screen spelling error markings as a rough measure of OCR quality.
Keep up the good work.
Paul
Thanks, yes agree, i think i did not have office at hand as i usually use google docs. but the text did copy to notepad so it should work to Word too.
If you ever feel like it, @@TonyAlbus , would be pleased to check for spelling and document structure.
@@grumpysdr6139 Yes that would be a nice addition to the video, but still don,t have office on that machine, it costs a fortune. on OpenOffice it prob also works, but it is not the same if you also want to see how the whole layout will end up with picture etc. , i get your point. i will put it on my list of things to do.
Thank you, Tony! A very complete review and demonstration. When scanning the first book, the extra text on the left looked like the dust cover text. Perhaps using a sheet of black paper inserted between the cover and first page would block that allowing the scanner to detect the page edge more accurately and save you from having to crop pages. Regards, David
You are right. Czur actually sells an accessory called Book Assistive Cover that does exactly that.
Thanks David, yes that is a great idea! i will do that scanning books. that first lose sheet manual of 200 pages was even fun so fast.
Thanks! will look at that.. or just find some black paper or non reflective black plastic..
Nice video. Tony, try to compare the scanning results on this scanner and using some scanning app for the phone in the next video: Microsoft Lens, Adobe Scan, iphone notes or Google Drive.
Thanks.
yes, thanks, nice idea
A fun tool. I worked in document management for years in Archives and did a lot of scanning. Flat docs are easy, and I used a PC program named 'Iris' which did the deskewing and OCR very well, even ten years ago. Books are a problem and I found that holding a book down on a flatbed scanner glass worked well because it flattened the text well enough, and you could position the book correctly. What you really need is a robotic page turner (vacuum?), but you would still have to fatten it mechanically and that would take time. MAYBE it could be done optically with dynamic lens correction and AI..... Not something that AI will do better than humans yet, though. Just detecting the orientation of text and recognizing foreign character sets is a formidable problem. It's a very interesting application.
Thanks Barry, good tips here! i was amazed how well OCR works there days..
To scan books using this scanner, you can try placing a glass on top (for example, from an old scanner) and to avoid glare on it, attach a regular photo polarizing filter to the bottom of the scanner camera. I’m sure the result will be better than using these yellow paddles to flatting the book.
For loose leaf it is surely better to use the automatic feed on the scanner. It is books and outsized pages that are more usefully scanned like this and the software doesn't appear very good at doing that, at least not without reading the manual first. I would need to have to do a lot of scanning to justify getting one. Useful for a library perhaps.
Good points, are those feeding affordable? oversizes works fine up to A3 format

Thank you!
Hello Toni ,thank you very much for this informative video. Do you think that I can also scan music scores with this machine ?
many thanks with best from Berlin Stephan Maier
Hi Stephan, it scan all kinds of printed on paper, but i am not sure the OCR will understand the Music, but the scan will me good enough
@@TonyAlbus Thank you very much!
