As a part of the IFA, one of the world’s leading trade fairs for consumer electronics, the winners in the competition “Gründerwettbewerb – IKT Innovativ” have been announced on September 2nd 2011. German eForensics has been chosen to win the main prize for its innovative technology EVISCAN and its high application potential in the field of crime detection. In particular, the jury pointed out that detecting crime scene evidence with EVISCAN is contactless, does not require prior treatment of the exhibit with chemicals or adhesive powders and yields faster results than conventional examination methods.
The competition is initiated by the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology to support new businesses based on information and communication technology (ICT).
