What is BALEX (Ballistic Expert) ®?
BALEX (Ballistic Expert) is an innovative software in the ballistic forensic field. Its main function is to perform external ballistic analysis.
From ballistic projectile hole photos on a surface, the 3D trajectories are calculated to determine the trajectories origin area.
BALEX (Ballistic Expert) ® Main Features
1. Automatic Trajectory Analysis::
- BALEX uses advanced technology to determine the projectile trajectory, using semi-automatic calculations based on the impact photos.
- Allows to identify the origin area of the ballistic trajectories
2. Forensic Photography and 3D Reconstruction:
- Allows you to calibrate crime scene photos, according to the specific software requirements.
- It facilitates 3D scene reconstruction, which helps to locate the trajectories origin area.
- 3D scenes can be exported to OBJ format, allowing their use in other 3D editing software.
3. Templates & Scene Preparation:
- It provides printable PDF templates, which help in collecting the necessary data and preparing the scene prior to the photo shoot.
- Ensures that photos are taken with the accuracy required for subsequent analysis.
4. Trajectory management:
- Allows to deactivate trajectories that visually do not belong to shot groups of the same origin.
- It provides the option to scale the trajectory lengths, depending on the scene, to adjust the convergence of the origin area calculations.
5. Report Generation:
- Collects all information from the scene analysis and generates a complete report in PDF format.
- The reports are designed to be professionally presented, facilitating the forensic experts’ work.
