Forensic Photography

Audit Log for Forensic Photography

We propose an architecture for an audit log system for forensic photography, which ensures that the chain of evidence of a photograph taken by a photographer at a crime scene is maintained from the point of image capture to its end application at trial. The requirements for such a system are specified and the results of experiments are presented which demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed...

Dimensional Review of Scales for Forensic Photography.

Scales for photography provide a geometrical reference in the photographic documentation of a crime scene, pattern, or item of evidence. The ABFO No. 2 Standard Reference Scale (1) is used by the forensic science community as an accurate reference scale. We investigated the overall accuracy of the major centimeter graduations, internal/external diameters of the circles, error in placement of th...

Computational Photography: Epsilon to Coded Photography

Computational photography combines plentiful computing, digital sensors, modern optics, actuators, and smart lights to escape the limitations of traditional cameras, enables novel imaging applications and simplifies many computer vision tasks. However, a majority of current Computational photography methods involves taking multiple sequential photos by changing scene parameters and fusing the p...

Computational Photography

Computational photography is an emergent multidisciplinary field that combines topics in optics, computer graphics, image and signal processing. The objective is usually the development of new algorithms or systems to capture images overcoming the limitations of conventional techniques. Images are not simply captured as 2D projections of a scene, they are rather coded before reaching the sensor...
