The University of Tokyo managed to make a scanner capable of scanning 200 pages a minute. As awesome as that is, why did they do that?
They plan to make a digital library of manga.
Since this was reported by IEEE and PopSci, the author was all agog over the scanner and didn't investigate any more plans for the digital library. We must try to keep an eye out for more news on this project.
