Prototyped, designed, and programmed a machine which automatically flipped the pages of a book, then take pictures of each for digitization and archival. The design utilized a pair of wheels to lift the page partially, then flipped the page over using a servo. The entire machine was controlled by Arduino and an AutoHotKey macro script to detect when the machine cycled using serial output and automatically take a picture using a USB camera.
