Forensics Microscopy Solutions

Advanced imaging solutions for forensics science applications

In forensic science, every detail counts. From trace evidence to fiber analysis, high-resolution microscopy reveals the hidden details that can solve cases. Our advanced forensic microscopy solutions provide precision and clarity, allowing forensic experts to make accurate conclusions with confidence.

Microscope Cameras for Forensic Sciences

We offer a range of microscope cameras, leveraging resolution, software features and compatibility. Individual camera specifications should be defined by specific application.

 

Jenoptik microscope cameras feature GRYPHAX software for using multiple microscope cameras on one PC for use with a comparison microscope. As well as featuring features such as panorama and onscreen measurements.

Naos

Jenoptik Naos fluorescence camera for high resolution single shot images up to 20 megapixels.

Capture complex samples with a 20-megapixel image, allowing for in depth analysis and presentation over the 1-inch sensor. The high resolution is ideal for presentation work, this resolution allows for pan and zooming in images for details.

Kapella

Jenoptik Kapella microscope camera for colour capture of florescence imaging.

Jenoptik Kapella is ideal for fluorescence applications within forensics, with a large pixel size and fast frame rates ideal for low-light situations.

Arktur

Arktur microscope cameras produce a fast 30fps at resolutions up to 4K making it ideal for a range of lighting conditions. 4K resolution allows for detail analysis such as in document/handwriting analysis. Images captured in 8 megapixels are ideal for being used in presentations. 


An ideal camera for comparator microscopes due to the resolution and ability to be combined in the GRYPHAX software with a second camera.

TIDAS Microscope Spectrometers

J&M TIDAS microscope spectrometers combine the strengths of microscopy and spectroscopy, providing a system that’s both fast and easy to use. This setup offers an alternative to traditional micro-spectrophotometry, simplifying colour analysis for micro samples and enabling flexible integration with standard microscopes. Components like light sources, monochromators, diode array detectors, and photomultipliers can connect via fiber optics, making the system adaptable for different applications.

​Applications in Forensic Science and Beyond

  • Fiber and Textile Analysis: Models like the MSP 400/800 are used in forensic labs for colour analysis of textile fibers, supporting investigations with precise matching and identification.

  • Document Examination: J&M TIDAS spectrometers are also useful for forensic document analysis, allowing users to measure colour properties and examine aging or bleaching in paper and ink.

  • Biochemical and Medical Research: In research, these spectrometers assist in analysing biochemical substances and cell structures, providing essential spectral data.

  • Mineralogy and Food Testing: J&M systems contribute to mineral analysis and food quality testing, detecting specific components or contaminants through colour and spectral measurement.

The MSP series upholds high standards for accuracy and flexibility, ideal for those requiring reliable micro-sample analysis across a range of scientific and forensic applications.
