to ‘un-wrap’ fingermarks
It is common for fingerprints to be found on curved or cylindrical surfaces. These surfaces may pose a significant challenge to the fingerprint photographer. The Cylindrical Surface Un-wrapper (CSU) is a plug-in accessory for DCS and Crime-lite Imager systems that enables the examiner to digitally un-wrap fingerprints.In this short video demonstration, an item of superglue fumed evidence is loaded onto the CSU with fingerprints being un-wrapped and observed using the DCS 5 fingerprint imaging workstation.
