Has anyone of you ever used the portable mobile pen scanner?

As a warning before you continue reading, I honestly haven't even heard of the existence of these pens until now, so I'm not going to be of very much use here.

That being said, these things are fascinating! I had no idea that the technology existed to scan documents on the go. I kind of wish this existed during my days in High School when copying my friend's homework, ha!

All jokes aside, I looked up a few models on Amazon and it would seem that the Scanmarker Air Pen Scanner seems to be getting the best reviews. Another good company seems to be IRISPen, which are a Canon company (and I love Canon), but there are multiple 1 star reviews it seems. Then again usually the people that give 1 star reviews either had a rare bad experience or are just dummies.

Oh this mobile portable pen scanner is alike your printer scanner but the device is small, scan across your A4 document, slowly but you will get some words missing and gibberish words replaced. It is convenient but not 100% correct. You need to edit them, unlike the real flatbed scanner that scans everything perfectly. By the way, I had used it in 2005. This is an old gadget.

It good for scanning your files just like the normal scanner, you should just research on the features you'll like for each brand and the one that would suit your taste better.I will prefer you go for old models.

I've only looked at videos of it, but it certainly looked interesting, I haven't gotten the chance to try it, because it's not a necessity and I'm not that interested in it, however I am curious in seeing if it would actually work properly in different environments and with different types of text.

I have only had the opportunity to test one of these pen scanners at a convention. They were presenting them and showing how they work. As cool as they might be, if I'm completely honest, I would wait a bit longer to purchase one. They still have to work on the actual application and how the pen registers words. It will make quite many mistakes and it can be annoying if you're in a rush trying to "scan" the paper document. If you do end up buying it, don't buy the cheapest kinds but rather invest into it so aim at mid-budget.

I haven't used, tried or even heard about this thing. But I think you can try searching it on eBay or on Amazon as well, like they have the best products that an online store can give or sell. If you want a cheap one then try the Aliexpress website, where they sell the cheapest value or the amount for an item.

I have seen the demo on the YouTube. And it seems like the scanning of notes can be good product. And it can have the benefit of both real book plus the copying. So that's another thing that many people can consider. You can see that pen scanner need to be cheap to be spread on bigger level. That's what I have noticed so far. It's different for each scenario though.

Well... I've heard many things about it, but I haven't particularly had the opportunity to use it. So, I don't have my own opinion formed about the effectiveness - or not - of it. But it's a part of the future (and even those who aren't very familiar with it have to agree).

Wow I didn't even know this existed until I read this thread. This is some pretty impressive technology and I would have loved to have had one of this when I was still in school. Although I think I would still have been fairly lazy despite having this tool if I'm being completely honest. I think this provides great convenience though especially if you need something like this for your job. I looked up some reviews on Youtube and C-pen seems to be a good one to get for a fair priced one with good functionality.

Now this is beginning to sound like a 007 spy gadget. I've never heard Of a thing like a portable mobile pen scanner. Do they even exist? Can we get a glimpse? Am saying we because I know a lot of people here haven't heard of it too. I guess i have to do a search then com back with a valid response.

Although it looks pretty useful, I still wouldn't get it. Checking out some reviews, I found is not as perfect as it looks like, you can miss words in the process, or sometimes full lines, so looks really double work if you have to scan it and then edit it. Also, this gadgets tend to be way too expensive, so until it gets really good, and can make its work in a proper way, then I choose to keep using the flat one.

Okay now I am new to this kind of things, I never thought of the existence of such technologies, I only seen commercials about 3D printers and a wristband which can do every other activities with your just one click (phone activities) .

Your thread sort of open my eyes to the wonders of it, when I saw your thread I quickly went to the Google search engine to check it out, it is cool it also have nice features and it is easy to use if you follow the guidelines. From the reviews I got and the ratings too, no one complained of any issues with it and I feel you are good to go, If you have the money just go for it I will definitely get one for my self soon.

This is the first time I am hearing about mobile pen scanner. To be honest, I am not sure that I will ever need this. I have downloaded a free scanner application from PlayStore and I have been using this for some years and it works wonderfully. I have never had any issues with this. Anyway, I have learnt something new today.

Mobile Pen Scanner? I haven't heard of this before and to be honest with you, I'm not sure that I'm going to be interested in finding out more about it. Looking at how it could be, I believe it's likely to be gadgets meant for spying which if there is going to be a model out there for the general public to buy, they won't be of the same quality like the ones government officials uses.

Well, pick one that has a faster bluetooth data transfer rate, I'm using an old world pen model and it takes a long time to do transfers. I've seen a newer model that has a quick edit function that would be a good thing to consider.

I have heard about this before but never actually imagined that it really existed. It would be nice to have one portable mobile pen scanner. What I see about this technology is that it would be at trend once widely commercialized. See, the way we use this technology can give us much convenience in storing data from hardcopy to your device. You don't need to bring you printer scanner just to scan a small piece of paper which I think I find to be bothersome.
I am hoping to have something like this here in our country.

I have yet to use one. It sounds cool. But based on what I've read, it has limitations. It's not good for getting important info from written documents. It can make mistakes.
