Created by Switzerland-based Dacuda, the PocketScan measures about 2 inches tall, 3.75 inches long, and 1 inch wide. It connects to your devices via Bluetooth and uses this connection to let you instantly see what you're scanning on the screen. Just move the scanner across an image or page and your swipes appear in real time as a scanned image or document. Scan a table and it's converted into an Excel spreadsheet, text becomes a Word document.

PocketScan grabs images and text at a resolution greater than 400 dpi and has its own lamp for illuminating the page so it works even in low light. Scan the QR code for more.
