Mobile viewer digitizes your stack of biz cards
Friday, July 9th, 2010
If you’ve ever spent more than a few days in Japan on business, you’ll have gone through more business cards than wooden sushi chopsticks. Japanese are endlessly exchanging cards, and it’s easy to accumulate a mountain of contacts. This digitizer cuts the mountain down to size and puts it in a handy mobile device.
The King Jim Pitrec DNH10 digital business card holder is much more compact than card management tools that rely on scanners. It has a small pop-up camera that images a card after you stick it in a slot; it can shoot up to eight cards in a row. You can view stored cards on the 3.5-inch LCD screen.
The 3-ounce, 5-inch-long device uses OCR software to digitize card contents, automatically detecting corporate and personal names.
