This unit is originally from the Florida’s Sheriff’s Department Crime lab.  I repaired it and used it for my forensic class at a Community College. The curriculum has changed and the unit is for sale.  SPEX forensic website provides excellent details on the use and applications as well as other forensic sites.  This is a very rare forensic system and for sale in working order.  The RUVIS first came about in 1997.   Numerous law enforcement agencies including the FBI use the SceneScope.  The Italian Carabinieri purchased 30 SceneScopes in 2002. New units cost well over $18,000 depending on your options.  This is an excellent forensic system for any police department, investigator, evidence technician, lab, task force, forensic student, CSI School or University.  The SceneScope easily fits in the truck of a vehicle.
