The LUCIA DactyScope software is an efficient solution for fast fingerpint comparison. A dedicated stand with a camera can be added to enable the operator to visualize fingerprints lifted with gelatin foils or directly on objects. The software can also serve as a platform for digital comparison of fingerprints captured by other devices. All common image formats plus NIST, WSQ, RAW, and PDF are supported.
A high-quality macro lens attached to a USB 3 CMOS camera (color or mono) provides excellent image quality without aberrations in the resolution range of 600 – 2500 PPI. This imaging unit is mounted on a column which allows to adjust its distance from the table surface manually. The scene is illuminated with a pair of LED panels. Image capturing, calibration, processing, annotating, measurement, and comparison are integrated in the LUCIA DactyScope software.
Features
-
A pair of 14 W LIM LED panels (3000 – 8000K) with homogeneous illumination and adjustable height and angle
-
A stand with coarse and fine manual focusing and a counterweight base leaving the entire working area free
-
12 MP camera with comfortable frame rate for top-quality real-time image
-
Optionally: a set of optical filters or a lens for expanding the FOV
-
Achievable resolutions and FOVs:
PPI FOV x (mm) FOV y (mm) 2500 (maximum PPI) 41 30 2000 52 38 1500 69 51 1000 103 76 600 (maximum FOV) 172 125
Software Integration
-
Real-time image for comfortable focusing and object positioning
-
Focusing assistant and image calibration
-
Image lightening (on frame HDR), HDR capture, inversion and flip presets based on selected evidence type (black foil, white foil, DCT-Book)
The DactyScope application including a NIST-file module is built on the universal LUCIA Forensic software. It is specifically designed for fast and efficient comparison of fingerprint images coming from any source – a real time camera image, an image file, or a NIST file. The software contains all functions needed to examine fingerprints: image processing, documentation, comparison of multiple images, mutual alignment, marking, and preparing final images for reports.
