A Scanner Made From LEGOs

What can’t LEGOs do? Seriously, if colleges invested in LEGOs for their physics students, we’d have a working time machine by now! In the meantime though, this DIY scanner may actually be useful for the offices someday in the future.

Why good for offices? Cost-consciousness, of course! While this LEGOs scanner, created by Anders Soberg, may require a longer setup time than one straight out of the box, at least you can tell everyone that your scanner has customizable colors. Find out how you can build your own flatbed scanner, which can scan and saved BMP images in 24-bit true color, 8-bit color, or grayscale, at Anders’s Mindstorm Page.
