I2S products

The art museum used i2S technology by ordering:

  • SupraScan Quartz A1 HD


The realization of the project

i2S scanners made it possible to lay the object flat and simply scan at a perpendicular angle.

Eliminate the need for image enhancement and other post-editing work is time consuming, i2S scanning solutions provide significant productivity gains by ensuring instant image quality.

With a large collection of fragile historical books, the Albertina now has solutions integrating book holders taking into account the fragile aspect of old books.

The advantages of the i2S solution

  • a price in line with the quality of the image
  • compliance with standards in terms of image quality
  • LED lighting respecting the uniformity of lighting and a very short exposure to light
  • delicate handling of precious objects
  • efficient scanning for greater productivity
  • automation of post-digitization processing tasks via software
