That’s why a nifty tool like the Scanmarker Air was invented. All you need to do is slide the handheld scanning pen across a line of printed text, and the text will automatically appear on the screen of your device. It’s like magic, and for a limited time, you can grab one on sale for 20 percent off. With the text to speech feature, it can also read the text back to you in real-time as it scans, so you also have your personal pocket-sized narrator. It even comes equipped with a dictionary. If you come across an unfamiliar word, just scan it, and it will inform you of its definition. The Scanmarker Air connects wireless from anywhere to a computer, smartphone, or tablet. It also works with Mac and Windows computers, as well as Android and iOS devices. Whether you’re working on a report, gathering meaningful data, or simply saving a passage you want to save for later, the pen will type it fast for you. Formerly retailing for $139, this Scanmarker Air: Digital Highlighter is on sale for only $110. Take your pick from two colors: black or blue.
