Unique hardware design Plustek's patent pending SEEÖ (Shadow Elimination Element) Technology includes a specially designed edge and lamp. This technology allows "zero edge" scanning (or book edge scanning design) which means the scanning module can scan right up to the edge of the scanner where the book spine is placed. The book can therefore be scanned with the pages completely flat on the glass to avoid the book spine shadow and distorted lines of text which occur when the books are scanned on a traditional flatbed scanner. Plustek has already received a patent on its specially designed lamp with curved ends. With this patented function, you wonÆt have to worry about keeping the integrity of any text or image again.
