HAL Scanner

HAL Laboratory Handy Scanner HIS-60

This amazing handscanner was a nice addition in those days when flatbed scanners were either unavailable (at least for MSX) or required an enormous investment. It could be used to enhance for example Dynamic Publisher documents.

The HAL handscanner came with original HAL software, a Halos variant). I rewrote and enhanced the Japanese to software for the Hal scanner (to make Stempels for Dynamic Publisher).
