Crime-lite® AUTO
POLARISING LENS KIT
Clip-on accessories reduce glare and reflection from the skin’s surface for improved visibility of injuries, bruising, and other areas of interest to a forensic nurse or sexual assault examiner.
A simple and effective accessory for the Crime-lite AUTO, these clip-on LED filters and adjustable polariser lens have been designed to improve results when conducting examinations of human skin.
Eliminate reflection and glare to capture high-quality images of injuries and bruising.
Examination of the body following assault traditionally relies heavily on visual examination. However, many injuries, such as bruises or bite marks, can be faint or hidden, with crucial details going undetected when examined under standard lighting.
When blunt force trauma occurs, blood vessels in the mid-layer of the the skin rupture, with blood leaking into the surrounding tissues. Following the initial injury, haemoglobin in this blood breaks down, causing the bruise to change colour. Over the course of roughly two weeks a bruise will go from red to purple/black/blue, then green/yellow, and finally yellowish brown.
Bruises of different colours will fluoresce more brightly under different illumination wavelengths, revealing differing levels of detail. This makes multispectral forensic light sources ideal for improving their visibility, while putting the victim first by ensuring examinations remain contactless and non-invasive.
The Crime-lite AUTO Polarising Kit eliminates surface reflection and glare from the surface of the skin, further enhancing our ability to visualise bruising, particularly on older bruises which may otherwise be difficult to observe.
