a 16-MP Ultra High Definition Camera

Shortwave Capability allows capture at 254nm,

throughout the Visible and into the IR.

Capture an Image once, and have the ability to

Zoom in to visualize all levels of detail.
 RUVIS
The SceneScope ® RUVIS UHD is a 16MP Ultra High Definition
camera with 4960 x 3324 pixel resolution, and a full frame chip.
It includes capture software with 3 user selectable modes: Fast
Viewing for placement, Focus on the evidence, and High Detail for
Capture at High Resolution and High Dynamic Range.

Detects Latent Prints

The two primary RUVIS applications are the detection and capture
of untreated prints on most non-porous surfaces, and cyanoacrylate
(CA) fumed prints. Print collection can be performed on surfaces
such as plastic bags, sticky sides of tape, glossy magazines,
photographs, linoleum tile, compact disks, credit cards, etc.
Cyanoacrylate treatment will further enhance the detection by RUVIS.

Smooth, Non-Porous Surfaces

The SceneScope RUVIS UHD Camera allows the detection of latent
prints, prior to treatment. This is possible on surfaces that reflect
light very well and do not absorb prints. That is to say, surfaces that
are smooth and non-porous. Untreated prints with residual moisture
show as white reflective ridges on a black background. Untreated
oily prints appear as strong, black ridges on a shiny background. As
surfaces become more rough or more porous, “superglueing” the
print may extend the range of surfaces on which RUVIS will work.

Captures High Resolution Images

SceneScope RUVIS UHD devices use 254nm UV light but they
are not detecting fluorescence. Instead the device looks for the
reflections and scatter of the 254nm light off of the fingerprint ridges.
The 16MP Ultra High Definition Camera is capable of capturing
high resolution images at 254nm that can be enlarged to visualize
all levels of detail. The camera can capture a full palm image that
contains all the information necessary to "zoom in" and see individual
minutiae points.

(FBI 12:1 certified compression, user adjusted other
protection devices against radiation. All RUVIS devices

Exposure to these wavelengths of radiation, even reflected or
diffuse, can result in serious, and sometimes irreversible, eye
and skin injuries. Never aim the shortwave UV lamp at anyone.
Never look directly into the shortwave UV lamp.
