Recognised as world leaders in the field of questioned document examination, our range of VSC instruments can be found in airports, border controls, government security agencies, banks and forensic laboratories worldwide.

Innovators in the field of latent fingerprint detection, our product range includes traditional methods as well as exclusive new and novel techniques.

Advanced instrumentation increases the value of forensic trace evidence by enabling examiners to compare and identify minute fragments of evidence using a range of techniques.

Crime-lite forensic light sources have pioneered the use of high intensity LED illumination for the search, detection, and examination of forensic evidence both at the crime scene and in the forensic laboratory.

PRODUCT ANNOUNCEMENT

RECOVER:LFT 

Latent Fingerprint Technology

Jointly developed by foster+freeman, the MoD Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl), the Home Office Centre for Applied Science and Technology (CAST), and Loughborough University, RECOVER:LFT is a cutting-edge technique that uses an innovative chemical fuming process to develop fingerprints on a range of difficult surfaces including those that have been exposed to extreme heat (discharged bullet casings for example) and items that have been washed ‘clean’ in an attempt to prevent identification.

NEW INNOVATION

VSC8000 3D Imaging

3D Analysis Mode Added to Document Examination Workstation

A new 3-Dimensional imaging feature for the VSC8000 enables document examiners to derive a 3D model of a documents surface topography in order to better analyse security features, pen-tip strokes and other impressions in paper.

Making use of the camera and illumination options already present within the VSC8000, the new 3D imaging mode will be of interest to all professional document examiners but will have particular relevance to those involved in the inspection of signatures and handwriting, particularly in cases of proof of provenance and ownership dispute.
