NFI Comparator / News: Recent posts

New version of NFI Comparator released

NFI Comparator is an image comparison tool designed for forensic scientists. The software was based on two other open source tools, NFI comparator and NFI face2face, and it combines the best functionalities of both applications. Version 3 of this application was completely rewritten using the Microsoft .Net Framework for more stability and much better camera and video support.
The application allows you to easily do a manual comparison of two images, an image and a video, or an image and a live camera capture using a directly connected camera or a remote IP network camera.
You can slide the two images over each other using an invisible movable separation for better positioning and comparison. It is also possible to resize and/or rotate an image and you can draw lines on fixed positions on the screen. The lines are drawn on a transparent overlay on the screen and moving the image position will not influence the position of the lines. The length of the lines can be viewed to do pixel based measurements.
The project is supported by FIDIS and the Netherlands Forensic Institute (NFI).... read more
