Can You Reveal Fingerprints Without Touch or Chemicals?
Since 2016, the answer has been yes.
Traditional fingerprint methods relied on powders, sprays, or direct contact with evidence, leading to contamination, damaged surfaces, and missed details. The result? Low-quality prints that struggle to meet modern forensic standards. But what if you could overcome all of that with just one device?
Where Traditional Fingerprint Detection Breaks Down
Trying to capture fingerprint images may lead to:

Contamination
Chemicals and powders may contaminate DNA evidence.

Loss of Evidence
Human error, powders, chemicals, or reagents could destroy the fingerprint.

Missed Details
Glossy, dark, or complex surfaces hide fingerprints, especially old ones.

Wasted Time and Workforce
Using too much equipment and switching between them causes delays and increases workload.

8K Latent Fingerprint Detection System F.A.Q.
What is the 8K Latent Fingerprint Detection Tablet used for?
8K Android offers high-resolution fingerprint detection with clarity and precision in fingerprint detection and examinations. It is the ultimate mobile system for dust-free and chemical-free fingerprint imaging.
How long does 8K’s battery last on a single charge?
The 8K Fingerprint system features two interchangeable high-capacity lithium-ion batteries, providing up to 12 hours of continuous operation. This dual-battery system ensures uninterrupted performance during critical investigations and minimizes downtime, making it ideal for extended fieldwork.
Is any chemical or reagent necessary for use?
8K Android is completely contactless and does not require the use of powder, chemicals, or any other reagents.
Is it impossible to identify overlapped fingerprints?
With the right imaging and analysis techniques, overlapped fingerprints can be separated and identified. The 8K Android, for example, can use multispectral imaging to capture each fingerprint under different wavelengths, enhancing ridge patterns selectively. This allows forensic experts to digitally isolate and analyze individual prints, even when they partially or fully overlap, so both can be matched accurately.
Can it detect fingerprints on curved or reflective surfaces?
Yes. The 8K Android can capture fingerprints clearly even on curved (e.g., doorknobs, bottles, glassware) or reflective surfaces (e.g., mirrors, polished metal, smartphone screens). Its advanced camera and lighting system remove glare and show the details, so evidence can be recorded accurately.
How much time does it take to get used to 8K Android for non-experts?
8K Android is designed to be used with ease. With its smart buttons, real-time evidence visualisation, and user-friendly layout, even first-time users can quickly become accustomed to the device.
Are minutiae points calculated automatically or do you need to use something externally?
They are calculated automatically. The 8K Android has a built-in fingerprint processing system that detects and calculates minutiae points directly on the device. There is no need for external software or hardware — the analysis is performed in-device, and results can be saved or exported for further forensic comparison.
What is DPI?
DPI stands for Dots Per Inch. It measures the image resolution by indicating how many dots (or pixels) fit into one inch. In forensics, a higher DPI means more detailed fingerprint ridge patterns, which is essential for accurate identification. While 500 DPI is the standard minimum for fingerprint analysis, the 8K Android captures images at over 1000 DPI, delivering exceptional clarity and precision for court-admissible evidence.
What software features are included in the 8K system?
The 8K Fingerprint device has easy-to-use software that shows live images in UVA, UVB, UVC, visible light, and IR. You can quickly capture high-quality photos, enhance image details, locally calculate minutiae, identify potential suspects with global AFIS integrations, and use the full case management system to securely save, edit, and organize evidence for faster, more efficient work.
Can 8K Android shorten investigation time?
Yes. The 8K Android can make investigations faster by finding fingerprints quickly and clearly without using powders or chemicals. It also lets you capture, enhance, and save evidence in one device, so there is no need to move between different tools. This helps investigators work more efficiently and spend less time at the scene.
How far can 8K see the fingerprints?
The 8K Android system can scan crime scenes from distances of up to 10 meters, enabling forensic experts to detect fingerprints on various surfaces without close contact. This long-range capability ensures thorough, efficient, and non-intrusive evidence detection across the scene.
Do you need to wear glasses while using 8K?
No. The 8K Android displays the live image directly on its built-in high-resolution touchscreen, so there is no need to wear special glasses. All evidence visualization and capture can be done directly from the device’s screen.
What makes the 8K Android differs from other fingerprint devices?
The 8K Android uses very high-resolution 8K imaging to capture even the smallest fingerprint details without powders or chemicals. It works on many surface types, has built-in lighting for any environment, and includes a full case management system, so you can capture, enhance, and store evidence all in one device.
