Meteor EC Digital Imagery Duplicator

Meteor EC duplicator series.
Designed exclusively for law enforcement applications, the Meteor EC duplicator allows the secure transfer of digital (photograph / video) evidence from digital camera memory cards to multiple CD or DVD discs without the use of a computer.

Digital photography is playing an increasingly vital role in the gathering of evidence by law enforcement agencies. At crime scenes and during traffic patrols, digital cameras and video recorders are fast becoming "standard issue," allowing the capture and subsequent analysis of photographic evidence.

In courts too, photos and videos are routinely admitted as evidence, however questions are sometimes raised as to whether this type of evidence will stand up in court. We all know how easy it can be to manipulate digital images.

As a result, most agencies that utilize digital photography and videos are introducing tightened security procedures to ensure that any copy of evidence collected will be as close to the “original” as possible and therefore admissible in court. It is not possible to guarantee that digital images will be admissible as evidence, but there are steps that you can take to increase the likelihood that they will be.

One crucial step is to ensure that officers copy the images from the digital cameras memory card, onto master disc/s, immediately upon their return to the office. The quickest and most secure way to do this is via the Verity Systems Meteor EC duplicator, which enables users to transfer data from the flash memory card to either CD or DVD without the need for a computer. Fitted with the very latest high-speed DVD-R burners, the data from the memory card can be transferred directly to 1 through to 3 discs simultaneously giving the user up to 3 CD/DVD copies of the original evidence, in just one simple step. Since there is no use of a computer or hard drive, the opportunity for tampering or corrupting evidence is virtually irradiated.

The Meteor EC is already being used by a number of law enforcement agencies throughout the world including the Wyoming Police Highway Patrol and the UK’s Metropolitan Police force.

Other applications include agencies and organisations which take photographic evidence for use in prosecutions, such as the RSPCA and Environmental agencies.

This unique solution offers users the fastest (single operation) and most secure backup (Personal Computer connection not required) of important data from erasable memory cards to archival discs at the most effective price.
