Flatbed scanner
A flatbed scanner is a device used to digitize documents and images. It consists of a flat glass surface where you place the item you want to scan, such as a photograph or a page from a book. When you close the lid and start the scanning process, a light moves across the item, capturing its details and converting them into a digital format. This allows you to save, edit, or share the scanned images or documents on your computer. Flatbed scanners are popular for their high-quality results and versatility in handling different sizes and types of materials.
