CURRENTLY SOLD OUT
The first KotC 2 adventure module, Augury of Chaos, and the KotC 2 module and campaign editor for Windows and Mac OS will be released to Kickstarter backers as soon as the campaign ends.

Find games for macOS made with Unity like Cardinal Chains, Fumiko!, Sanguine Sanctum, Wide Ocean Big Jacket, Nightline on itch.io, the indie game hosting marketplace. PiQx Imaging researches, designs and develops book scanning hardware systems and related software algorithms. We created the xcanex bookscanner - the world's fastest, lightest. A database of player reviews, session reports, images, and news. Last year, 8bitdo, a Hong Kong company that specializes in Bluetooth and wireless controllers for retro systems, came out with a special receiver commemorating the Apple II after a successful kickstarter campaign. The key element of this device is the adapter that connects to the joystick port of the Apple II computers and converts it to Bluetooth, allowing the game pad to be used as a.

Flip a book page, drop a photo or place a document and you are done in a second without having to touch any switch. 7 unique features took 8 years to build, and each of them separates the xcanex from all other overhead scanners. Don’t miss the demo videos below - seeing is believing.
Periodically depressing a button or pedal becomes tiring and mentally exhausting after just a few minutes. The xcanex knows exactly when pages are set and captures instantly by itself.
A waiting time of 2 second per scan means 1000 seconds are wasted for 500 captures. The xcanex has negligible waiting time without the erratic capture hesitations typical of auto-capturing systems, or needing pre-scan line projections which cause a delay for every scan.
Ambient light destroys scan quality by imposing glare, coloration and shadows. The xcanex has a built-in synchronized flash-shutter system to block ambient light from reaching the image sensor, producing clean and pure content in its original form.
Conventional digital page flattening algorithms either leave error residues or are content sensitive. Multi-dimensional curve correction in the xcanex virtually eliminates all page curvature to produce perfect text sentences and paragraphs.
Books do not stay open by themselves and typically require the use of page holders or finger attachments that is tiresome and slow. The xcanex allows the intuitive use of bare fingers to hold pages instead of dedicated holders due to its ability to accurately recognize and automatically remove them from scans.
Without the stand, the xcanex weighs just 7 ounces (200 grams). Mounting it on your laptop makes it the lightest and most space-saving overhead scanner ever. Integration takes only seconds (see demo video below).
The xcanex slips easily into a bag , shelf or drawer with its streamlined and foldable body. It is fully USB powered without needing power adapters or charging.
You may have read some of these features in product reviews or advertisements, but have you actually seen any of them in real action? Probably not, because we know how hard it is to make them truly work. This demo shows how it scans books, photos and documents, complete with the scan results :

We built it with all-metal moving parts to make it strong and durable while keeping it compact and streamlined. Only very few units will be made.

Page curvature presents inevitable shadows that are almost impossible to remove. Conventional software gets rid of them by simply brightening the background but simultaneously erases subtle shades and details in graphics as well, giving you low quality output far from real scans. That prompted us to develop an image recognition algorithm which is able to intelligently differentiate between curvature shadows and graphical content. The effort is justified by the result - beautiful scans of graphics on curved pages never before possible.
See how the software has evolved throughout the years in these release notes.
We knew the risks well. But there was an unmet need. And we have what it takes to make it work. To all xcanex users who have continued to encourage and support us throughout these years - Thank You. You have kept us going.

NOTE THESE LIMITATIONS
All automatic image processes and page detection applies only to book pages with no edge-printing (i.e. no ink printed at the top and bottom edges of page) - we are still working on this.
The xcanex bookscanner does not run on the Linux OS, and was never tested on any virtual platforms (e.g. VirtualBox running Windows) on top of the Linux OS.
Dual-page simultaneous capture supports only books measuring 6 x 9 inches or smaller (W x H when closed). Single-page capture supports books measuring 9 x 12 inches or smaller. Does not support scanning of books larger than 9 x 12 inches.
Attachment to laptops is possible only on screens with height equal or in between 8.5 to 11 inches (vertical).
* All timing measurements were made on an average spec, year-2015 laptop with Intel i5 processor, 4 GB RAM. Measurements are averages of multiple samples taken during typical usage conditions. Performance may vary reasonably with scan subject and computer environment (e.g. other software/anti-virus running concurrently, hard-disk condition, page size and content, power saving/security settings).
We provide worldwide shipping via Air Courier. Delivery usually takes 10 to 20 working days upon order placement.

Apparatus, in short, is the sum of my experiences over the first 10 years of my adult life. Playing Punk-cover songs at summer camp in high school turned into writing songs of my own. Then in College I developed the desire to record some of those songs. I realized the college I was enrolled in offered an Audio Recording Program, and I decided there was no reason I couldn’t be good at it. Humble pie was served on many occasions by my instructor, Paul Hamann (Suma Recording) until I learned to be good at it.
Then I bought a bunch of gear and quit my job. Not long after that I got a new job, because almost all the bands I had lined up to record had broken up before my 2-weeks-notice was over at the old job. I went back to school and learned a thing or 2 about cameras, editing, filmmaking etc. Then I worked for some really great companies, getting a lot of invaluable corporate, professional experience doing completely unrelated work, but all the while adding sprockets & spur wheels to the Apparatus I love.
Voila. Here we are. I’ve learned to hone my craft, and my wife still likes me in spite of it all. I’ve gotten to shoot a lot of really awesome footage for some really great projects, record some downright raucous music, watch some projects gain recognition beyond what I expected, and made a lot of great friends in the thick of it all.
If you’re a band looking to record or promote for kickstarter, a business owner looking for promo or training material, or even just some guy or gal looking to document something in a fun and unconventional way, I would love to hear from you. Pretty much, if you want something made with a camera and/or microphones, chances are high that I will find a way to make it.
