pECI – evaluation
  • Description

    This project evaluated a novel portable episcopic coaxial illumination (pECI) device that can be attached to a DSLR or mirrorless camera lens for the detection and recording of latent fingermarks at crime scenes. This dataset contains photographs of fingermarks enhanced using a pECI device and evaluation of this device compared to standard fingermark photography techniques. This dataset cannot be openly published due to ethics conditions. To discuss this research, please contact Val Spikmans, V.Spikmans@westernsydney.edu.au, ORCID 0000-0001-5648-8330
