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.
