Many take modern electronic devices for granted. Cell phonesare a good example, that literally bristle with abilities and features like colorscreens, digital sound and digital cameras. They weigh only a few ounces, fit easilyinto a pocket and can communicate with most anyone in the world. Yet cell phones arehardly give them a second thought even though the technology behind them is simplyamazing.
As a kid, communication devices like cell phones were stuff of science fiction andnever thought it would really happen. Amazing technology devices that could be heldin the hands was the stuff of fantasy and dreams. And while so many are oh so blaseabout these things, from time to time something comes along that is so cool that itmakes us sit up and take notice. One such device is the DocuPen RC800 from Planon.
Looking much like a quality pen, the RC800 is actually a 24 bit color scanner. Withresolutions from 100 to 400 dots per inch, this incredible little 1.75 ounce pieceof technology lets you take a full-sized page and scan it's entire contents into thepen in around 4 seconds. Unlike previous pen scanner models that only scanned in oneor a few lines at a time via the tip of the pen, the RC800 uses its entire bodylength to scan in the complete page. Just move the pen from top to bottom or left toright if it's a bound book.
