Platform

A handheld scanner and the platform that reads what the firearm left behind.

ShotOptix captures a recovered casing at the scene. Revelen reconstructs the marks the firearm pressed into it and ranks the candidate matches, before anyone leaves the site.

ShotOptix

The scanner an officer carries to the scene.

ShotOptix is a handheld device paired with the Revelen app. An officer images a recovered casing on site, no fixed install, no trip to a regional lab, no waiting on a queue.

Machine vision reconstructs the marks a firearm leaves, then ranks the candidates.

Every firearm presses a distinct signature into the casings it fires. Revelen reads that surface, rebuilds it, and compares it against known casings to rank the most likely matches.

01 Capture

ShotOptix images the casing surface in detail, at the scene, on the device.

02 Reconstruct

Machine vision rebuilds the firing-pin and breech-face marks the firearm pressed into the metal.

03 Rank

Revelen scores the casing against known surfaces and returns ranked candidate matches an examiner can confirm.

Inside the match

See the match, not just a score.

Revelen puts both casings side by side, so an examiner confirms the match with their own eyes.

An actual Revelen comparison: two casings placed side by side and confirmed as a match.

Built to fit your workflow

Enhances the workflow you already run.

Revelen runs right alongside the lab. The casing still gets collected, logged, and sent exactly as it is today. Chain of custody stays intact. What changes is timing, the lead arrives while the scene is still live.
