Check out the use of high speed computer vision processing technology in the area of book scanning, where the built-in camera sensor will run at 1000fps, capturing pages as they turn while making a record of text and images regardless of distortion and lighting differences. The system will definitely be advantageous in speeding up the digitization process of low-cost e-books and other library data. This book scanner is made possible thanks to a camera that utilizes lights hooked to a synchronized control circuit alongside a laser range projector that will estimate the 3D page geometry. Doing so enables it to correct any distortion from the page being turned while offering uniform, ideal lighting simultaneously.
