LG has built a portable scanner into a regular mouse.

Computer mice are produced in tens and hundreds of millions. With this variety of mice - thousands, probably tens of thousands. All sorts of designer, gaming, ordinary mice weekly update the range of products in computer stores. There are mice with a touchpad, with a calculator and a telephone. This time, LG has found an opportunity to release a new type of computer mouse - with a scanner inside. And, by the way, the idea is really good, the mouse turned out to be quite practical.

So, Smart Scan LSM-100, the so-called new mouse model from LG, can scan documents that are quite large in size - up to A3. It is not yet known how fast this scan is being performed, but the idea is really interesting - instead of a rather bulky scanner, you can use a regular mouse. Yes, of course, if you need to scan a lot of sheets, then such a portable scanner is not suitable, but for a couple of pages of a passport, or a contract on two leaves - this mouse is quite suitable.

Embedded software is delivered with the mouse, which can immediately transfer scanned data to formats such as JPEG, PNG, BMP, TIFF, PDF, DOC and XLS. It is probably suitable for the same document scans, but if you need to recognize the document in Russian, the proprietary software may not be able to cope with it, then you should turn to the same Fine Reader.

Unfortunately, the mouse is wired (which is understandable), so that lovers of wireless manipulators are left with nothing. And yes, the cost of this device is also impressive - you will have to pay $ 150 for the mouse + scanner. The device should appear in Europe at the end of this month (actually, already the end, so that the mouse-scanner is on the way).
