Video Enhancement and Authenticity

video enhancement services by a video expert and forensice video specialist

What is the most often used Forensic Video Enhancement Analysis technique?

Clarification. In video footage we can remove noise, interlacing lines and video graininess. Transient items like rain and snow are removed revealing the details hidden beneath. Blurring caused by interlacing, lense blur and camera/subject motion is reduced and images are significantly improved with multi-frame and velocity reconstruction processing technologies for the best enhancement job available.

Can any file be improved?

Yes! The question is by how much. At AVFL we endeavor to recover usable evidence. Send us your file and in most cases we can tell you if it is worth working on. Some media needs more time consuming inspection and I will advise in advance if charges apply.

 

What other video services are available:

Demultiplex View multiple cameras at once, then interactively select which demultiplexed camera views you would like to view. Those views can then be saved as individual video clips. NEW – REALTIME VIEWING AVAILABLE to identify suspects and crime scene activity.

Create Panoramic Images this important area of video combines images present in various segments of crime scene video to produce one composite still which includes all critical visual elements in one picture.

Magnify a section of the video, enhance it and display the result as a higher resolution still (or video). Especially useful when presenting the results in court.

Capture virtually any digital video file into an uncompressed video file for processing. The digital file is often recorded in a proprietary format and often it requires a proprietary player to simply view the file. Once digitized, the footage can be used for further examination. This digitized footage is an exact duplicate of the original file, thus the original is left unaltered.

Stabilize shakey video scenes. an unstable area of video is tracked and stabilized in the XYand Z axis and the picture clarified.

Authenticate Authenticity examinations are conducted to determine whether video recordings are original, continuous, unaltered, and consistent with the operation of the recording device used to make the recording.

Reconstruct an image which is only partially visible at any one time as a complete image. Example, a car passes by but only part of the car is visible as it passes by. We create a mosaic image which stitches together the whole car and renders it to a still.

Measure Height of Suspect with relatively few actual known measurements at the scene.

Redaction – Animated redaction by blurring faces, body parts, logos or objects moving in video scenes. Highlighting moving participants or objects in a video scene.
