Forensic visualization and recording apparatus

摘要

An integrated imager and camera mounting assembly that allows a single operator to scan the crime scene for prints without assistance, and to attain an optimally illuminated and stably focused recorded image with single handed adjustments. The assembly includes an A-frame stand which carries a pair of UV lights on adjustable arms for single handled adjustment by the operator in the scanning and recording modes. The stand includes a footed base that allows the operator to securely engage the frame against vertical, horizontal and irregular surfaces using the imager handle thereby locating the imager at a fixed distance from the print area and permitting ready focusing of the image with the other hand. The base further includes a sliding scale for placement in the field of view for dimensional referencing.
