Scan your photos and documents using Brookstone Scanner Mouse


            Technology can really be amazing with just blink of an eye. I stumble into this new device from Brookstone which is a multichannel specialty retailer and product development company, a Scanner Mouse with an integrated scanner that helps saves time and space which delivers a flexible manner of scanning files.


            It works as a regular computer mouse, a point-and-click computer mouse with a durable dual laser sensor, track wheel, smooth motions and a comfortable grip. Through the Smart Scan button on the left side of the mouse, it can scan on photos, artwork or receipts by just gliding the mouse over a document freely in any pattern then the software will stitch the scanned images into one on the display.

            The images scanned by this Brookstone Scanner Mouse can opt to save it in variety type of files such as JPEG, TIFF, PNG, BMP, XLS, DOC and PDF where can be subsequently uploaded to social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter, Flicker or email. Moreover, LG’s Optical Character Recognition technology is used to inevitably convert scanned text to editable Microsoft Word or Excel files. Images and text scanned can also be integrated with the application Evernote.

             The Brookstone Scanner Mouse can scan documents and images up to 16.5” x 11.7” with a resolution of 320 dpi. The software of the Scanner Mouse includes functions for editing contrast, brightness, and zooming, resizing, rotating and cropping images.

             This device would truly be handy for those who would prefer for more space but convenient devices. I would be so much interested to have one so I could easily modify my pictures and documents by just gliding this tiny multifunction device.

Its buttons can also broadcast your "happiness levels" in eight different moods from positive to negative directly to the preferred social sites.

       These jeans is available in two colors: blue and black, in regular-slim or skinny fit for men and skinny or baby boot cut for women.It would just cost you €150-€199 for an easy update for your friends on Facebook or Twitter.
