In December of 2013, the Lake County Crime Laboratory acquired a forensic 3-D laser scanning system for crime scene documentation and reconstruction. This cutting edge technology is built around a Focus3D Laser Scanner. This scanner scans 360 degrees in a matter of minutes, in the process taking millions of measurements. This hardware is then combined with SceneVision-3D Software to deliver amazing results: • Crime scenes are completely and accurately captured, and once scanned, any specific measurement can be determined from the collected data; • The software allows for reconstruction of incidents, including shooting trajectories, bloodstain pattern analysis, and the determination of victim locations; • The system allows for complete and unaltered views of crime scenes, and three dimensional models can be created and viewed from any direction. To date, the 3D scanner technology has been used to capture homicide, suspicious fire, and assault scenes. The Lake County Crime Laboratory has this state of the art equipment up and running, and it is available whenever needed by the Lake County Law Enforcement Community. Law Enforcement Agencies can call Central Dispatch to request this service.
