DESCRIPTION

BookDrive is a de facto industry standard of how libraries around the world digitize their books today. A dual-camera “V” cradle imaging system captures images of books and print materials, without risk of damage to the items being scanned. This scanning solution pioneered by Atiz has become so successful that it is widely embraced even by competitors.

Simplicity of its design

there are fewer things that can go wrong. There are no motors, and fewer moving parts.

Cost

This product was considerably cheaper than the other units we were considering.

Modularity

If we want to upgrade to more powerful lenses or cameras in the future, we can just buy them and install them ourselves without having to purchase a whole new machine. Therefore the Atiz Mark II is more safe from obsolescence.

Size

The Atiz Mark II takes up less space than the other units we were considering.

Speed

The Mark II can capture 2 high-resolution images in a couple of seconds including the time it takes to turn the page. Overhead planetary scanners take many times longer, depending on the resolution.

SUPERIOR ERGONOMICS, COMFORT AND SAFETY

Ergonomics, operator comfort and safety is most important and it has received a major upgrade.

BookDrive Mark 2 Lite is easier on your back, arms, eyes and ears.

PERFECTED LIGHT DESIGN FOR GREATER IMAGE QUALITY

Better image quality backed up by stats

Even light distribution with no bright or dark spot visible anywhere in the frame.

THE “V” SYSTEM – BETTER, SCRATCH-RESISTANT V PLATEN

The V platen is made using a premium scratch-resistant material that is more transparent and durable than glass allowing for better scanned images. It is manufactured using a different production technique so that it allows you to scan deeper into the gutter.

CANON SUPPORT

Designed from the ground up to support Canon DSLR cameras, both zoom lenses and prime lenses. Conveniently slide your camera to the suggested position and begin shooting, your camera will be at the right distance and height perfectly matching the size of the item you intend to scan.
