            Abstract : 
In this paper, the concept of page-oriented reading for the next generation optical storage devices is introduced. The design of a read head device that is capable of simultaneously reading a page of 32 by 32 bit optical data is conceived. The feasibility of the design is analyzed, presented along with the current progress in implementing the entire system.
