Testimonials

The Smytec BlindSite Scene Camera has significantly enhanced the way I search for, locate, collect, and document latent prints in the field. Its intuitive design allows for quick deployment and seamless operation, making it a reliable tool during fast-paced investigations.
One of the most impressive features of the BlindSite system is its effectiveness
in any lighting condition. Whether working in daylight or low-light environments, I’ve been able to consistently locate latent prints inside the vehicles I’ve processed.
The clarity and contrast of the captured prints far exceed what can typically be achieved using traditional black powder methods. The improved detail has resulted in noticeably higher-quality lifts and more usable latent print captures. Additionally, the ability to take multiple images of the same latent print without making physical contact with the surface is a major advantage. The system also provides superior visual documentation of print locations within the broader context of the scene, adding valuable evidentiary support.
Overall, the BlindSite Scene Camera has strengthened my ability to identify and document latent prints across a variety of surfaces. It has proven to be a dependable, high-performance tool, and I would strongly recommend it for latent print processing and documentation.

“Following a request to attend an assault in a busy Northern Ireland city centre we were able to locate a small bloodstain on the footpath using the Blindsite NIR light source setting. We confirmed it was blood with Hemastix at the scene.
Having the Blindsite device available provides an efficient and effective searching mechanism to recover evidence, in this case with a positive blood stain being identified.”
