QDE EQUIPMENTS/TOOLS IMAGE(S)/PHOTO(S) USE(S)

1.VSC6000HS THE VIDEO SPECTRAL

COMPARATOR 6000 (VSC) IS
A MACHINE BY FOSTER +
FREEMAN. THE MACHINE
UTILIZES MANY FUNCTIONS
AND DIFFERENT LIGHT
SOURCES TO EXAMINE
DOCUMENTS, AND IS
USUALLY USED AS A
FORENSIC TOOL TO CHECK
THE VALIDITY OF VALUABLE
DOCUMENTS.
2. ESDA ESDA WORKS BY APPLYING
AN ELECTROSTATIC
CHARGE TO A DOCUMENT
CONTAINING SUSPECTED
INDENTED WRITING. THE
INDENTED WRITING IS
VISUALIZED THROUGH THE
APPLICATION OF CHARGE
SENSITIVE TONER.
INDENTED WRITING (I.E.,
DISTURBED FIBERS)
CREATED FROM
PREVIOUSLY WRITTEN
DOCUMENTS ON OVERLYING
PAGES CAN THEN BE SEEN.
3.STEREO MICROSCOPE THESE MICROSCOPES ARE
VERY VERSATILE AND ARE
DESIGNED FOR VIEWING
WHOLE OBJECTS SUCH AS
ROCKS, INSECTS, AND
FLOWERS, BUT CAN ALSO
BE USED FOR VIEWING
PREPARED SLIDES. THEY
ARE A HELPFUL TOOL FOR
NATURE STUDIES AND ARE
IDEAL FOR YOUNG
CHILDREN.
4.SPECTROPHOTOMETER A SPECTROPHOTOMETER IS
A DEVICE USED TO
MEASURE LIGHT AT A
SPECIFIC WAVELENGTH. IT
CONSISTS OF TWO PARTS:
A SPECTROMETER AND A
PHOTOMETER. THE
SPECTROMETER PROVIDES
LIGHT AT A SPECIFIC
WAVELENGTH. 
5.FINGERPRINT LIVE LIVE SCAN PROVIDES THE
SCANNER FINGERPRINT TECHNICIAN
WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO
RETAKE A PRINT SEVERAL
TIMES TO ENSURE THEY ARE
CAPTURING THE BEST
IMAGE QUALITY POSSIBLE
6. OPTICAL MICROSCOPE THE OPTICAL MICROSCOPE,
ALSO REFERRED TO AS
A LIGHT MICROSCOPE, IS A
TYPE OF MICROSCOPE THAT
COMMONLY USES VISIBLE
LIGHT AND A SYSTEM
OF LENSES TO GENERATE
MAGNIFIED IMAGES OF
SMALL OBJECTS.

7. NIST STANDARD PRECISION METAL RULERS

RULER ARE CALIBRATED BY
COMPARING THE CUSTOMER
SPECIFIED INTERVAL TO A
FREQUENCY-STABILIZED
LASER WITH ACTIVE
TEMPERATURE, PRESSURE
AND HUMIDITY
CORRECTIONS APPLIED TO
THE LASER WAVELENGTH IN
AIR.
8. PROTRACTOR PLACE THE MIDPOINT OF
THE PROTRACTOR ON THE
VERTEX OF THE ANGLE.

LINE UP ONE SIDE OF THE

ANGLE WITH THE ZERO LINE
OF
THE PROTRACTOR (WHERE
YOU SEE THE NUMBER 0).

READ THE DEGREES WHERE

THE OTHER SIDE CROSSES
THE NUMBER SCALE.
9. FLATBED SCANNER THE SCANNER IS ATTACHED
TO THE COMPUTER AROUND
THE SIDE OF THE
CIRCULATION DESK AND
CAN BE USED BY ANYONE. IF
A PATRON ASKS FOR
ASSISTANCE, THE
PROCEDURE IS LOCATED
BELOW

10. IR AND UV VIEWING INFRARED (IR) AND

SCOPE ULTRAVIOLET (UV) VIEWERS
ARE USED TO VISUALIZE THE
INFRARED (IR) AND
ULTRAVIOLET (UV) LASER
BEAMS. INFRARED (IR) AND
ULTRAVIOLET (UV) VIEWERS
ARE ABLE TO CONVERT
INVISIBLE RADIATION INTO A
VISIBLE IMAGE
