IMPRNT

IMPRNT is a forensic tool that helps police and crime-scene investigators find and capture fingerprints. It uses an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner to gather fingerprints from crime-scene victims. The investigators then use IMPRNT’s multispectral illumination capabilities to examine latent fingerprints on objects and surfaces. IMPRNT performs a real-time comparison between the fingerprint under observation and those collected from the victims, improving the efficiency of pinpointing prints that may be crucial to the investigation. This contactless fingerprinting method reduces the chance of errors and the amount of evidence that needs to be processed, leading to quicker investigation processing times.
