Only 2-steps to digital Forensic expertise
Camera Ballistics takes its complex analysis method and turns it into a simple two-phase process. Simply create a few reference photos with the suspect camera for the to program learn about the device’s sensor and a sensor fingerprint will automatically be generated. Camera Ballistics will use this fingerprint to analyze the photos you are investigating and match it to the ones taken by the suspected camera.
In this first step, you will supply reference photos from a camera in order to create its sensor fingerprint. The more photos you make the more precise your results will be. It is recommended to make 30-80 photos of white walls or clouds (i.e. images without sharp shapes and edges). You will supply the algorithm with this folder of images (up to 200) to be processed. Once analyzed you will choose a name for the fingerprint file.
This step will match the fingerprint file created by the Learn process to the photos under investigation. When you run the analysis, you can see the processing progress followed by the mathematical data and results as after analysis. Finally, a PDF report of the results is generated with thumbnails of all processed images.
Camera Ballistics’ power is further amplified by its sleek and intuitive interface that guides you through processing in just a few clicks. This makes Camera Ballistics a simple, yet powerful, innovation in digital forensic tools.
Generate tamper proof evidence
All possible information such as device make, model, GPS, camera settings, mean square error, fingerprint presence result, probability, and correlation will be organized into a well-designed and comprehensive PDF report, suitable for submission as evidence.
Interpreting the results of image source identification
Camera Ballistics alerts the user and shows the results’ probability of accuracy. Images whose characteristics have been altered by rotation, enlargement, cropping, or other forms of editing, will not contain any traces of the sensor fingerprint.
Please note that results should be interpreted like other typical ballistics tests: if traces of the device fingerprints are not found in a digital image, it doesn’t necessarily mean that the particular device has not been used to capture the image.
