What do you get if you cross a scanner with a book? Well one of these I guess. This idea seems a little
bizarre, but it is definitely unique and actually makes a rather bland looking scanner look slightly more
impressive. A scanner has been modified to appear like a book, and charted his progress on his own website.
Being tired of the boring aesthetics of a flatbed scanner, DataMancer took it upon himself to solve this issue,
and add a degree of style to it. By hollowing out a book, the scanner was placed inside, and I'm assuming that

It's always the strangest ideas that seem to achieve the highest attention, and I wouldn't be surprised to
see scanner modifications popping up all over the internet fairly soon. How about a scanner, disguised as a
coffee table, or a scanner disguised as a lamp shade? Ok, now we're being silly…
You can view the scanner / book and the progress made throughout his modification at his website.
