Sharp Tiny LCD Screen Double As A Scanner

Sharp has shown off an interesting new piece of technology in the form of a small 3.5-inch LCD screen that also doubles as a scanner that could be used to scan business cards.

The screen, on show at the Ceatec exhibition, features an optical scanner for each LCD pixel, and could also be used to recognise fingers or other objects.

The prototype is expected to see commercialization in the first half of 2008.
