Compact Forensic UV Lens Assists Crime Scene Investigations

Resolve Optics Ltd. has announced a new high performance 60mm focal length Forensic UV Lens for use with Reflected UV Imaging Systems (RUVIS) that incorporates a range of useful features to assist police forensics and crime scene investigations.

The lens uniquely provides high performance in both the UV and visible wavebands, which enable investigators to identify and focus on a target in the visible and then quickly slide the UV filter across to take images in the UV without having to refocus. By using a novel telescopic focusing mount the lens gives a large movement in an extremely compact form. This provides the lens with the capability to image objects from infinity to 1:1.25 magnification without using add-on adapters.

Offering a wide field of view (8.3° at 1:1.25 magnification up to 16.6° at long object distances) the lens offers unmatched high-resolution macro images for fingerprinting and human skin damage applications in particular. Because of its wide field of view and the high transmission qualities of the lens coatings used the Forensic UV Lens is considerably more light efficient than other longer focal length lenses offering an identical view.

The Forensic UV Lens offers a true high-resolution crime site macro viewing capability by imaging onto a RUVIS scope with a 1:1 lens magnification whilst exactly matching the optical resolution of both lens and image intensifier.

Resolve Optics Ltd. is a highly knowledgeable, dynamic company focused upon innovative design, and manufacture of production quantities of lenses and optical products on time to strict quality and target price guidelines.
