A new mouse by LG not only carries out the usual tasks of a computer mouse but also doubles as a scanner. The appropriately named “mouse scanner” is simple to use and allows documents and photos up to A3 size to be saved as graphic files.

Alternatively, optical character recognition (ocr) software can be used. The scanner has a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels.
