    Flexible Plastic Book Scanner

    Tokyo University researchers have developed a scanner embedded in a flexible sheet of plastic that will allow archivers to get into the cracks of old and fragile books without cutting apart the spine. Plus the scanner uses a set of organic diodes to register the image using reflected light, meaning just a good, bright fluorescent should get the job done.
