Abstract
The present invention relates to an apparatus for imaging a page of a book or other similar document comprising: wherein the light sources are fixedly connected to a main frame, said main frame defining a partially or fully hemispherical dome; wherein said main frame comprises a first module and a second module, said second module being detachably connected to the first module at a first end thereof, said first end defining a plane that is obliquely orientated at an angle β relative to the support plane; and wherein, when the second module is disconnected from the first module, a free space between the first end of the first module and the support plane is adapted to permit the movement of the table and the book in the longitudinal and lateral directions without coming into contact with the main frame.
