Detecting Latent Fingerprints on Explosive Devices is Now Possible with ForenScope’s 8K Android
Forensic units have begun routine field use of contactless 8K Android’s Superspectral imaging to recover latent fingerprints from explosive devices, according to operational updates from several public security agencies. The imaging method allows investigators to document friction ridge detail without physically touching evidence or applying chemicals, a notable shift from traditional development techniques. The approach […]
