Forentrics, a cutting-edge spin-off from KU Leuven, has officially entered the forensic technology market, bringing advanced innovations to crime scene investigation. In a recent press release held in conjunction with the Belgian Federal Judicial Police (FJP) of Brussels, Forentrics showcased its groundbreaking tool, HemoVision, which the FJP has integrated into their operational workflow over the past year.
The highlight of the event was a live demonstration of HemoVision in action, set against a meticulously arranged mock crime scene. This demonstration illustrated the impressive capabilities of HemoVision in real-time, garnering attention from several major Belgian media outlets (links at the end of the post).
Forentrics' collaboration with the FJP marks a significant milestone in forensic science, combining academic research with practical application to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of bloodstain pattern analysis in criminal investigations.
Stay tuned as Forentrics continues to revolutionize forensic technology, making significant strides in crime scene analysis and helping to bring justice with cutting-edge precision.

The coming month will be an exciting one for the Forentrics team, as we’ll be attending and contributing to three different forensic and policing events across Europe. We always value opportunities to meet investigators, forensic scientists, researchers, and students in person, exchange ideas, and discuss the future of forensic technology and Bloodstain Pattern Analysis. Here’s […]
We are proud to share that Kristin Russell and Eugene Liscio have published an independent validation study evaluating the accuracy of HemoVision’s Area of Origin (AO) analysis capabilities. The publication represents a major milestone for HemoVision and the broader forensic community. Independent validation studies are essential for establishing the scientific reliability of forensic tools, particularly […]
A new independent study by Savita Brickman-Maxwell and Eugene Liscio has evaluated the accuracy of HemoVision’s new cast-off bloodstain pattern analysis feature. The paper represents the first dedicated validation study of HemoVision’s cast-off workflow and marks an exciting step forward for forensic BPA technology. The study investigates HemoVision’s ability to estimate the swing path of […]
