Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute’s Production Systems and Design Technology lab have created software designed to take scans of shredded documents and PIECE THEM BACK TOGETHER. They plan to use the system to restore some 45 million pages of communist East Germany’s secret police files currently in 600 million shredded pieces. The scans are “analysed by a cluster of 16 computers for 25 features, including color, shape, texture, handwriting and typeface,” then reconstructed.
