The VSC8000 combines sophisticated digital imaging and multi-wavelength LED technology with a clear and efficient software interface, to provide a complete solution to the examination of all questioned documents.
Infrared, hyper-spectral imaging and the systems integral spectrometer may all be used to detect the use of multiple inks on a document, and in many cases, establish the order in which different inks were added to a page.
For over 30 years Foster+Freeman VSC workstations have been recognized as the premier range of imaging systems for the forensic-level examination of questioned documents.

Unique to the VSC8000, Super-Resolution Imaging (SRI) is an optical system providing excellent clarity and image resolution of documents up to A4/Letter size.
A motorized XY translation stage, with simple on-screen controls, allows fast and precise positioning of documents at high magnification.
Non-destructive spectral analysis of documents to identify differences in inks and paper formulation.
Directional, multi-spectral light sources from UV through the visible spectrum, to IR can reveal details that are normally invisible to the eye, increase image contrast and excite document security features.
An advanced technique for the discrimination of inks. Incremental images of documents are captured across a broad spectrum. A false-color overlay highlights spectral differences.
At each stage of the VSC8000 design process, attention has been given to the requirements of the end user. Many of the system's new features come as a direct result of user feedback.
All types of questioned document
Designed to meet the requirements of immigration authorities, government agencies and forensic science laboratories, the VSC8000 includes advanced features for the examination, comparison, and authentication of documents including passports and travel documents, official letters and breeder documents, banknotes and cheques, works of art and valuable artifacts through the detection of irregularities.
Visual examinations of a document under high magnification can quickly reveal physical evidence of tampering while examinations under various wavebands of illumination can expose alterations.
The VSC8000 is capable of revealing all levels of security features including covert features such as anti-Stokes inks, latent images, UV security threads and taggants.
Non-destructive VSC examination makes it possible to establish the authenticity of an item, detect changes that have been made and to see beneath the surface of an artifact revealing its history.
Introducing VSC Suite 7.0
At the heart of the VSC8000 is sophisticated software that maximizes the effectiveness of document examinations by providing the user with complete control of all VSC functions via a quick-access toolbar.
A range of application focussed workspaces provides tools and functions specific to the type of document being examined.
Pre-set workspaces include Passports, ID cards, banknotes, and handwriting analysis.
Predefined procedures greatly increase both the speed and efficiency of examinations.
Results are displayed and stored together with VSC examination settings.
To ensure accurate and repeatable results, the system can be calibrated using NIST traceable standards.
Reliable system performance can be verified using simple, automated diagnostics to check the status of motors, light sources, and filters.
