ABSTRACT:
In an apparatus for recording an image, a light transmissive waveguide defines a thick end, a thin end, and a main plane disposed between the thick end and the thin end. An image-recording device is disposed adjacent the thick end of the waveguide, the image-recording device being capable of recording a two-dimensional image. The light-transmissive waveguide and the image recording device are arranged whereby the image recording device records an image placed on at least a portion of the main plane.
