Lord_Nigh |
SketchCow: does IA have any plans for building google-labs-style book scanners? I.e. using two gutted 1200dpi scanners mounted together at a right angle and a vacuum scheme to turn pages |
19:02
🔗
|
balrog |
Lord_Nigh: I discussed this; those are fairly rough on books, especially older ones |
19:19

godane |
it looks like i can upload again |

M1das_ |
balrog: doesnt google cut out the back of the book so they can scan quicker? again, not really nice for the books ;) |
20:10
🔗
|
balrog |
M1das_: depends (and I agree though I'd do that too for "common" books) |
20:11
🔗
|
M1das_ |
for common books it's ok, if there are 100+ books available |
20:12
🔗
|
M1das_ |
i might start scanning some books at home with a simple camera, 2 lights and a some other dandy stuff, have alot of old pre 1800 books here |

I worry cheap digital cameras would quickly burn out their flash memory if used as a bulk scanner :P |
20:35
🔗
|
phillipsj |
Hopefully expensive ones would only wear out replaceable flash memory ;) |
20:35
🔗
|
Baljem |
that's a slightly unfortunate choice of verb, perhaps! |
20:36
🔗
|
balrog |
most digital cameras have a RAM buffer and use memory cards for storage... |
20:36
🔗
|
phillipsj |
oh, right, that. |
20:37
🔗
|
phillipsj |
The ones I have seen have some built-in memory too. (so you don't need an SD card) |
20:38
🔗
|
phillipsj |
I can envision the cheap firmware being hard-coded to write to the internal memory before copying to the external media. |
21:11

|
yipdw |
phillipsj: a lot of DSLRs do that for write buffering |
21:11
🔗
|
yipdw |
it's not a matter of cheap vs. good though |

http://m.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Internet-Archive-s-S-F-office-damaged-in-fire-4960703.php <- 'when a scanner sparked'? so one of the scanners started the fire? that's surprising... |
22:04

Lord_Nigh |
given those things are so expensive |

The scanners did not like how they were being used and so revolted. |

If you built the scanners in a cloud, they never would have caught fire. |

oh shit |

Plus cloud-based book scanning is a lot more scalable since you can just add extra Amazon EC2 instances whenever you need. What do you mean I can't do everything in the cloud? |
