Scanning Hardware

Scanning hardware refers to devices that convert physical documents and images into digital formats. Common examples include flatbed scanners, handheld scanners, and 3D scanners. When you place a document on a scanner, it uses light and sensors to capture the text and images, creating a digital copy that can be stored, edited, or shared on computers. Scanners are widely used in offices for digitizing paperwork, in libraries for archiving books, and in various industries for recording 3D objects. Overall, scanning hardware facilitates the transition from paper to digital, enhancing accessibility and organization.
