I am opening up orders for a public beta of the Archivist Quill at the store.
One of the most exciting things about the new scanner is that with the complete kit, it can act as a standalone scanning appliance. The complete kit includes a Raspberry Pi 2 running Pi Scan and a touch screen which are mounted to the scanner frame. The scanner can be configured and controlled via the touch screen and then the resulting scans are stored on external USB storage. The only other thing you might want to plug into this setup is a keyboard or USB foot pedal if you want to trigger scans with a physical switch.
If you have any questions or comments, I'd love to hear them.
