Cloud-based simulation of page curling in the copying of documents
The Challenge
Digitisation of books is an important process, both for commercialisation and for preservation of older texts. The Bookscanner© product can automatically and physically turn pages and automate the scanning process. However, this process results in a 'page curling' effect where the pages are attached to the spine. The scanned pages need to be digitally flattened, a tedious and expensive process that this experiment aimed at improving and commercializing.
