Abstract

A device for capturing (100) rendered text is described. The device incorporates one or more visual sensors that receive visual information as a part of capturing rendered text (100, 102 and 104). The visual sensors are collectively capable of capturing both text that is permanently printed on a page, and text that is displayed transitorily on a dynamic device. The device further incorporates a visual information disposition subsystem (110) for disposing of visual information received by the visual sensors. The device further incorporates a package that bears the visual sensors and the visual information disposition subsystem, and is suitable to be held in a human hand.
