Atiz Spotlights Powerful, Affordable Book Scanner at ARMA
(Market Wire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) ORLANDO, FL -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 10/15/09 --
Atiz Innovation,
Inc., the leader in content digitization, will showcase its latest book scanning
solution, BookDrive Pro, this week at the ARMA International Conference and
Expo in Orlando, Florida. From deeds to books to legal documents, BookDrive Pro addresses the difficulties associated with records
and information management by using a simple scanning method to digitize
important documents. Additionally, BookDrive Pro's affordable price point
lowers the barrier of entry for many of those tasked with digitizing bound
content.
ARMA International is a not-for-profit professional association and the
global authority on managing records and information. It is known
worldwide for setting standards and best practices, and for providing
comprehensive education, publications and information on the efficient
maintenance, retrieval and preservation of vital information created in
public and private organizations in all sectors of the economy.
Until now, scanning bound content could be a difficult and cumbersome task,
producing results that were not high in quality. Atiz, whose products have
scanned more than 3 million books worldwide, is helping those tasked with
digitizing bound content get the job done at a price point that they can
afford.
A powerful, cost-effective book
digitization solution, BookDrive Pro combines digital SLR cameras with
a unique v-shaped book cradle that is gentle on books and eliminates
curvature problems to produce
high-resolution scans at up to 700 pages an hour. Priced far lower than
competing scanners, BookDrive Pro also features:
-- A user-friendly, ergonomic design
-- Automatic center positioning to ensure consistent
borders and lessen manual intervention
-- Double security locking mechanism
-- Distortion-eliminating even light distribution
-- Standard auto capture to simplify the whole process
-- A price point far lower than competing offerings
"From service bureaus, deed registries and archivists, to enterprise data
managers and government entities -- everybody has bound content that needs
to be scanned," noted Nick
Warnock, president of Atiz. "BookDrive Pro gives organizations the
ability to handle their digitization projects themselves,
allowing them to choose what is scanned as well as control the sometimes
sensitive content
-- all while saving money by not having to outsource these projects."
Service bureaus in particular are benefitting from the use of BookDrive
Pro, including Advanced Micro-Image Systems, IMR Digital, Kellpro and
Scantiva.
Atiz's innovative approach utilizes high performance SLR cameras as capture
devices, making BookDrive Pro the best value proposition in the industry,
as it will never become obsolete. When new, improved camera models become
available, users need only to replace their cameras -- not the entire
scanning system as is the case with other offerings. Further setting it
apart from competing offerings, BookDrive Pro has the ability to scan
oversized books -- up to A2, newspaper size -- and heavy, cumbersome items
such as deed registries.
In addition to book spine damage and low productivity, conventional or
overhead scanners also produce curved page images and rely on software to
correct resultant curvature problems. This approach has proven to produce
poor, often unreliable results. Atiz has taken a different approach, and
BookDrive Pro eliminates the need for page curvature correction, making it
faster and less expensive than other offerings. The combination of a
v-shaped book cradle and transparent platen which sets the book in an
angled position for scanning by high-speed, high resolution digital SLR
cameras is a unique design that guarantees sharp, flat-looking pages in
every scan.
Included with BookDrive Pro is Atiz's proprietary software package:
BookDrive Capture and BookDrive Editor Pro. BookDrive Capture allows for
the simultaneous capturing of images. The software supports SLR cameras
manufactured by Canon. BookDrive Editor Pro allows for image editing
functions such as the ability to batch crop, deskew, despeckle, color
adjustment, TIFF conversion, and the output of eBooks in PDF format.
