<p><center><b>Abstract</b></center><blockquote>
SANE stands for ``Scanner Access Now Easy''. It is a universal
interface that enables you to acquire images from any device that
produces raster images, including flatbed scanners, video and still
cameras and frame grabbers. The intent of SANE is to make it
possible to write image-processing applications without having to
worry about peculiarities of individual devices. Looking at it from
the other side, SANE makes it possible to write a device driver once
and only once. That same device driver can then be used by any
SANE-compliant application.
