Dixau Can Copy Text From Your Book And Paste It Onto Your Computer

I’ve always wanted a gadget like Dixau. It can easily copy any text from your hard copy material, like papers, books or magazines, and shift it directly to any laptop. This feature enables people transferring full pages into their computers or just copy a word / line and translate them with online dictionaries. To do so, just drag it down the paper, mark the desirable section and copy with the built in camera. The text will be displaced onto your screen and will be available to use digitally. Available in Korea for $90, the Dixau can be very useful, specially for students, bloggers and journalists. Having said that, we have no details concerning language support, so you might get stuck with Korean content.

Wonderful! In the past I had to use a photo scanner with Text identification software such as Text bridge to manage such tasks.
When the book was big this was leads to missing texts on the inner boundaries of pages. This new tool will make this is more easy.
The real point should we have to know more about this toll is the accuracy of catching text and how many languague and fonts it supports.
