Abstract
An electronic microcopier apparatus includes a reading head, an electronic memory and a writing head, all contained within a small case that may be held in the hand. In the reading mode the instrument is passed over images, such as written text, where photosensors read the optical information and transmit that information to the electronic memory. The electronic memory stores the information until the device is used in the writing mode. In the writing mode, the information from the electronic memory is fed to a writing head and is faithfully reproduced on a piece of paper. A wheel with angular markings rolls as the copier is displaced over the textural material in both reading and writing modes and thereby makes it possible to ascertain the position of the copier. The invention has the advantage of extreme portability. Several alternative embodiments of the invention are disclosed.
