Optical redrawing device - tracer (LUCIE)

 
A photo or 3D template or a transparent template (e.g. slides) is projected from below onto a glass plate with high-quality optics. This image can then be "traced". In this way, you can transfer fonts, images, logos, etc. onto a sheet of transparent paper or enlarge and reduce them quite easily and above all steplessly.

The device is only available used.
