CRIME-LITE AUTO
CATEGORY
Have you captured the perfect image using the complete all-in-one forensic illumination and photography solution?
This category invites Crime-lite AUTO users to push this powerful imaging system to its limits to capture standout images at the crime scene or the laboratory.
FINGERMARK CAPTURE
CATEGORY
This category honours the continued evolution of fingermark imaging and analysis techniques and the vital contribution of the field to forensic investigations.
We invite you to impress us with your most interesting and visually striking fingermark images, including 3rd level detail of ridges and whorls. Consideration will be given to challenging fingermarks which are successfully imaged.
‘BEYOND THE VISIBLE’
CATEGORY
Multispectral illumination and imaging play an important role in crime scene examination, laboratory screening, and photography of evidence.
This category looks ‘beyond the visible’ and invites all submissions making use of the Ultraviolet and Infrared regions of the spectrum to reveal what would have otherwise remained unseen.
