The Digital Transitions Division of Cultural Heritage provides cameras and copy-stand solutions to support programmatic digitization e orts of libraries, museums, archives, collectors, service bureaus and other institutions. Our experience in designing digitization systems comes from executing preservation and commercial imaging programs, giving us first-hand knowledge of the stringent requirements and concerns cultural institutes face when digitizing large and varied collections.

Our systems are ideal for long-term programmatic digitization where their high throughput and industrial durability produce a very low per unit digitization cost.
