REVIEW – I’ve been 3D printing for a while now so when Revopoint offered their POP 3 3D Scanner for review I was immediately intrigued. There have been times where I had a broken part or wanted to 3D print an object that I didn’t have or couldn’t find .stl files for which is the …

REVIEW – During the pandemic, a lot of face-to-face activities were quickly converted to online. This meant that a lot of the paper tools typically used in face-to-face interactions also needed to be converted to digital. A scanner works well, but what if it was something you needed to demonstrate with? Or, what if you …
REVIEW – I have boxes of my family’s documents that have been gathering dust due to scanner issues. I’ve tried both flatbed and sheet-fed scanners, but none have been able to handle the wide variety and sizes of pages and books that make up the cluttered collection. I guess the flatbed scanner has worked for …
REVIEW – Ever since video chats from home became commonplace, I’ve thought about how I could show objects or documents without holding them up to the camera. Document cameras have been around for a long time, but I was reluctant to try one until the CZUR Aura X Pro scanner came around. What is it? …
CROWDFUNDING REVIEW – More and more frequently my bibliophile / book collector and private educator (specialized tutor-for-hire) have been colliding, and I need to capture images of documents (e.g., invoices for book and ephemera purchases, documentation of edition variations, and illustrations for my students). Until now, I have been making do with the cameras in …
CROWDFUNDING REVIEW – I remember having a flatbed scanner back in the day. It was always a pain to scan a large document because it had to be done one page at a time and if the pages were printed on both sides… well, ugh. These days, if I need to scan a document, I’ll …

REVIEW – In my personal and professional capacities, I end up scanning a fair amount of stuff. It’s always easier to find storage space for 500 pages in digital PDF form than to get another filing cabinet. I have been using a common brand of an all-in-one printer/scanner for the big stuff, but I also …

REVIEW – I’ve been using an old-school flatbed scanner at work for years, but I don’t like using it. Mine was dusty and slow, so I was eager to test out the Fujitsu ScanSnap iX1500. Did it make me a happy camper? What is it? The Fujitsu ScanSnap iX1500 is a compact, top-fed desktop scanner …
REVIEW – Each of my two printers at home has a scanner, but neither is a duplex scanner. When the Xerox Duplex Combo Scanner was offered to the Gadgeteer for review, I was excited to try it out. What’s the verdict? Well, it’s relatively small and lightweight. It scanned my large two-sided documents quickly and …
REVIEW – The iPad market share has hovered around 20 to 30% for the past few years. Imagine how different our world and experience would be if each one of those cameras had 3D capture ability. The Structure Sensor is an attachment to the iPad that provides the ability to capture 3D information. Read on …
REVIEW – For folks like me that walk around with as much technology as possible, portability is a critical need. The art of being ready for any and every situation related to the photography/videography industry means that I should be ready and able to meet the needs of clients at a moments notice. In my …

When I first heard about this little pen, offered by PenPower, that could scan and translate on the go, I couldn’t wait to get it into my hands. I began thinking of all the possible ways I could use this to copy written word, and/or translate text to be used on my computer or any …
Capturing images has changed dramatically since 2007 when the iPhone brought in the expectation of having a really capable camera with you at all times. With the miniaturization of smaller image capture sensors, scanners, as well as phones, have gradually increased in processing power to the level that every office of any size will have …
I got a new job! Well, that’s not the subject of the review, but because of the job, I’ve been overwhelmed by the number of business cards I receive. They’re all important, so I do want to file them, but the old way of manually keeping them in a business card folder seems so inefficient …
