Hi all.
Just finished a prototype of my first Comic Book Scanner. It is a very simple build that works surprisingly well. I can not use it to scan books but most comic books is no problem.
I am trying out different kind of software for the processing part. Just now it looks like the easiest way is to use a combination of Canti and Scan Tailor. I have wrote a little bit about Canti here http://diybookscanner.org/forum/viewtop ... f=1&t=1043
The scanner is a one camera scanner.
I have not painted the scanner so I use black cardboard as background. I have made 3 different cardboard backgrounds for different sized comic books. I have made "holders" on each side and on the top so that the comic book stays steady on the background without moving.
If there are other Comic Book scanners out there I would like to hear how you scan your comics

Oups. I tried to link to my images by using the IMG command and I linked to my images that is hosted on ImageShack. But that did not work.
If anyone is interested you can find the images here instead. https://www.dropbox.com/gallery/1313343 ... r?h=179a94
