How To Use Your iPhone As a Scanner for Your Mac
https://youtu.be/unm_PQP5_yg
Document scanning is improved on the new iPad Pro
The new iPad Pro models with the M4 chip are equipped with "adaptive True Tone flash" for improved document scanning.
With adaptive True Tone flash and AI, the new iPad Pro can eliminate shadows on scanned documents, as Apple explained in a press release:
It also now features a new adaptive True Tone flash that makes document scanning on the new iPad Pro better than ever. Using AI, the new iPad Pro automatically identifies documents right in the Camera app, and if a shadow is in the way, it instantly takes multiple photos with the new adaptive flash, stitching the scan together for a dramatically better scan.
Improved document scanning will be available in the Camera, Files, and Notes apps, and third-party apps will be able to offer the feature too.

Will anyone be buying mechanical-mirror DSLR cameras in 5 years?; This link and the following one were suggested by Sue Moran Thole.
SoloShot
SoloShot is a robotic tracking device for video or still photography. You or your subject wear a tag and the base unit (mounted on a tripod) will tilt and pan to keep the camera aimed at the tag. The base can support up to a 5 pound camera. Some DSLRs will require an additional cable to hook up.
