Crime-lite Auto

Forensic imaging technology meets powerful multi-spectral illumination in this complete solution to the search, detection, and capture of evidence.

Investigators no longer need to carry a box full of light sources, a camera, filters, and multiple pairs of goggles, because the Crime-lite AUTO offers all this functionality in a single package.

Providing complete portability and ease of use for the operator, the Crime-lite AUTO is an essential tool for criminal investigators and first responders and includes all of the technology required to reveal evidence including body fluids (semen, saliva, urine, etc.); blood on dark fabrics; fingerprints; gunshot residues; and traces of physical evidence (glass, fibres, hairs, etc.).

Never Miss a Trace:

Maximise evidence capture with pre-set PVL (Product Verification Library) examination modes

Unique to foster+freeman, the Crime-lite AUTO enables examiners to search for evidence using a set of scientifically verified ‘AUTOmated’ examinations – now with more evidence types.

PVL, or Product Verification Library, refers to a collection of over 20,000 reference images used to scientifically verify the optimum illumination and imaging conditions for a variety of common forensic evidence types.

The findings of this vast study appear within the Crime-lite AUTO as PVL Presets, a powerful toolset for the improved detection of evidence including body fluids and traces of DNA.

Expert Results, Verified by Science

This unrivalled level of research, combined with the Crime-lite AUTO’s intuitive interface, enables every Crime-lite AUTO user to achieve expert results when searching for and detecting evidence.

Detect More Evidence with 3 New PVL Presets

While the initial PVL presets focused on body fluids, our applications team has been working in collaboration with Florida International University to extend the scope of the project, adding 3 more presets for common evidence types: Ignitable Fluids, Narcotics and Gun Shot Residue.
