clicktoscan
Clicktoscan enables users of camera phones or digital cameras to capture, share and store information that is important, wherever they are. [via mobile|blog.it]
Just take a picture of your document and clicktoscan will scan it when you are ready to use it. You may also want to fax or email it to someone, and they will do that for you too.
Most pictures of documents or whiteboards are hard to read and poorly legible, even with higher resolution cameras. This is why they are not being used for this purpose today - clicktoscan’s core technology makes such images legible and clear so you can communicate them to others or store them for personal use.
How does it work?
clicktoscan uses proprietary patented technologies to process camera phone images, and produce “scanned” images. Images taken with the camera are simply sent by MMS or email or uploaded in the clicktoscan server, processed and stored. If you specify an email address or a fax number in your MMS or email, clicktoscan will automatically send the scanned document to your contact.
