Portable scanners are compact devices designed to quickly digitize documents, photos, and other materials. They are lightweight and easy to carry, making them ideal for use in various settings, such as offices, schools, or while traveling. Many portable scanners connect to computers or mobile devices via USB or Bluetooth, allowing users to save and share scanned files effortlessly. These scanners often come with features like automatic document feeding, which enables users to scan multiple pages in one go. Some models also include optical character recognition (OCR) technology, allowing scanned text to be edited and searched. Popular brands include Fujitsu, Canon, and Epson.
