Crime-lite LASER

For the detection and examination of every last trace of forensic evidence, Foster+Freeman’s new Crime-lite LASER provides intense, ultra narrowband laser illumination from a truly portable light source. Available in Blue (447 nm) and Green (520 nm) wavelengths, the Crime-lite LASER is capable of revealing evidence including latent and treated fingermarks, body fluids, and other invaluable traces of forensic evidence:

  • Latent & treated fingermarks
  • Body fluids (blood, saliva, semen)
  • Accelerants and traces of GSR
  • Illicit drug residues
  • Other minute traces of evidence

Crime-lite 82S PRO

NEW!

Used and trusted by law enforcement, military, and clinical forensic examiners worldwide, Foster+Freeman’s Crime-lite 82S PRO light sources can be relied upon to provide the high-intensity narrow bandwidth illumination required to detect even the smallest traces of forensic evidence. The Crime-lite 82S PRO range builds upon that time-proven technology, providing CSIs and forensic examiners with the illumination they need to Detect More Evidence. 16x high-intensity LEDs, each hand-picked for brightness and wavelength accuracy, ensure a consistent level of performance and effectiveness while PRO VISION evidence viewing accessories further improve the visibility and contrast of evidence. Available in UV, Violet, Blue, Blue/Green, Green, Orange, Red and Infrared wavelengths.

Crime-lite 82L PRO

NEW!

16 high-intensity LEDs mounted behind a cylindrical lens give a wide floor level light beam that is ideal for detecting surface debris and shoe prints. A concept developed by Foster+Freeman, the Crime-lite 82L PRO produces a ‘sheet’ of variable intensity (10%, 50%, 100%) white or UV light to reveal floor level evidence. The device is supplied with blue, green and red clip-on filters to enhance contrast on coloured backgrounds. Provides a flat linear sheet of light for surface illumination with constant light output throughout the battery charge and an ergonomic design.

Crime-lite 42S

The first high intensity dual-colour forensic Crime-lite for crime-scene and laboratory applications. Foster+Freeman’s Crime-lite 42S, switchable between two arrays of 8 high-intensity LEDs provides the forensic examiner with three illumination outputs in a single alternate light source. Using a simple 3-way control the examiner is able to alternate between two narrowband wavelengths or to use all 16 LEDs in combination to provide high-intensity wideband illumination. The ability to detect evidence under a selection of wavebands from a single source increases the chances of locating evidence and allows forensic investigators to reduce search times.

Crime-lite 2

Foster+Freeman’s range of lightweight LED forensic light sources effective at short range providing intense, even and shadow free illumination for locating and examining evidence. The range includes a white light model for general search and eight narrow band light sources with wavelengths in UV, Violet, Blue, Blue-Green, Green, Orange, and Red for detecting fluorescent stains. With thousands of units in active use by crime scene and forensic investigators worldwide the Crime-lite 2 has proven effectiveness and reliability. Crime-lite 2 light sources are available individually or in sets with viewing goggles or spectacles.

Multispectral Illumination

Crime-lite X

Foster+Freeman’s complete ALS kit in a single light source, the Crime-lite X enables the examiner to seamlessly switch between White, UV, Violet, Blue, Blue/Green, Green, Orange, Red, and Infrared LEDs, to perform a comprehensive multi-spectral examination of a crime-scene. Operated via a simple 3-button interface, the Crime-lite X provides new functionality, never seen before in a forensic light source, that will ensure that crime scene and laboratory examiners reveal the maximum amount of evidence in every examination. The biggest leap forward in Forensic Light Source technology for over 20 years.

Crime-lite AUTO

Foster+Freeman’s Crime-lite AUTO is where forensic imaging technology meets powerful multi-spectral illumination. The complete solution to search, detect, and capture evidence. Investigators no longer need to carry a box full of light sources, a camera, filters, and multiple pairs of goggles, because the Crime-lite AUTO offers all this functionality in a single package. Providing complete portability and ease of use for the operator, the Crime-lite AUTO is an essential tool for criminal investigators and first responders and includes all of the technology required to reveal evidence including body fluids (semen, saliva, urine), blood on dark fabrics, fingerprints, gunshot residues, and traces of physical evidence (glass, fibres, hairs).

Crime-lite ML PRO 2

NEW!

A simple and intuitive imaging solution, the Crime-lite ML PRO 2 from Foster+Freeman is a semi-automated evidence screening tool built to meet the demands of busy forensic laboratories tasked with processing a broad variety of evidence types. Examine objects under UV, Visible, and IR light sources to reveal hidden details, utilising pre-configured lighting/filter combinations for specific evidence types, or craft custom configurations for ultimate flexibility. The ML PRO 2 manoeuvres effortlessly over evidence, enabling both one-click automated searches and manual control over light sources and filters.

Crime-lite ML PRO

Perfect for rapid forensic triage to meet the demands of busy forensic laboratories. Foster+Freeman’s Crime-lite ML PRO is the first in a new generation of evidence screening tools built to meet the demands of busy forensic laboratories tasked with processing large quantities of evidence. With fully-integrated UV-VIS-IR illumination and an ‘intelligent optics’ imaging system, the ML PRO can be used to mark-up evidence, detect the presence of body fluids, and locate minute fragments of trace evidence.

Crime-lite ML2

Foster+Freeman’s Crime-lite ML2 forensic light source combines the versatility of multi-wavelength, high intensity LED illumination with wide area bi-ocular magnification. An ideal system for the examination and ‘marking up’ of large items of evidence in the laboratory. The essential bench top magnifier with multi-wavelength illumination with the option of including an infrared illumination module.
