Never Miss a Trace: Maximise evidence capture with pre-set AUTO examination modes

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

Our AUTO examination modes are based on 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 presets, providing 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 AUTO Presets
While the initial 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.
