Applications

Increased Speed
and Efficiency

The Crime-lite ML2 provides forensic examiners with a fast and efficient method of screening articles for the presence of fingerprints, trace evidence or other biological material. Laboratory productivity is greatly increased by quickly ‘marking up’ areas of interest and eliminating articles devoid of evidence.

Searching Beyond
the Visible

The addition of a new Infrared LED module and UV-Vis-IR camera has further increased the functionality of the Crime-lite ML2 by allowing investigators to conduct examinations beyond the limits of the visible spectrum. Previously hard to detect evidence, such as blood or GSR on dark or densely patterned fabrics, becomes clearly visible under IR illumination when viewed in the infrared waveband.

Accessories

Bandpass Viewing Filters

In addition to the standard filters supplied with the Crime-lite ML2, a selection of Bandpass Viewing Filters, tailored for the examination of specific evidence types, are also available.

  • 415nm for the visualization of blood spatter
  • 530nm for the visualization of body fluids
  • 550nm for the visualization of body fluids

Each Bandpass Viewing Filter is manufactured from Schott glass with an additional coating to suppress auto-fluorescent emissions from the Schott glass itself, thus ensuring maximum optical performance when using high power light sources.

Evidence undergoing infrared examination using the Crime-lite ML2 IR module is visualized using an IR sensitive camera attachment with live video images being displayed on a PC monitor.

  • Attaches to the Crime-lite 82S
  • Hi-speed USB 2.0 interface
  • Includes UV, Vis & IR filters
  • Includes image capture software

Tablet PC Mount
adjustable mount that clamps tablet PC to Articulated Arm

Available for use with all foster+freeman Crime-lites, this robust wheeled cart is ideal for use in forensic laboratories.

The 70x60x70cm unit is mounted on lockable castors and can be manoeuvred around exhibits. A two-point fixing plate allows for the easy attachment of a Crime-lite articulated arm.

An optional uninterruptible power supply can be used to power equipment with no trailing wires. When not in use the trolley can be connected to an AC mains power outlet to be recharged.
