Case Study: Forensic experts from Padua, Italy achieve detailed crime scene documentation with 3Dflow photogrammetry

Forensic Experts From Padua, Italy creates 63.2M-triangle crime scene models with 3Dflow

The customer, forensic experts from Padua, Italy, collaborated with vendor 3Dflow to test the application of photogrammetry for forensic analysis. Their challenge was to accurately and non-invasively document and analyze various types of evidence, such as blood stains and fingerprints, by creating detailed 3D models from photographic data.

The solution implemented by 3Dflow involved processing photos, taken with a specialized Canon camera, using their 3DF Zephyr software. This allowed the experts to generate highly detailed 3D meshes from a minimal number of images, successfully reconstructing evidence like a tie with over 6 million triangles and a tile with over 15 million triangles. 3Dflow's technology provided the experts with a powerful tool for creating solid, scalable documentation for legal investigation.
