"This exciting new partnership with Salient Stills, which is an acknowledged technology leader in Video
and Imaging Forensic software, is adding a prestigious video processing suite to FTS's growing Forensic software
portfolio in the UK," said Shaun Hipgrave, commercial director at FTS. "Fundamental to FTS's ongoing success is
a significant and continued dedication to expanding our capabilities with appropriate and complementary forensic
technologies. The VideoFOCUS Pro suite directly assists already heavily stretched video analysis departments to
process and manage the huge volumes of CCTV and video evidence being processed every day. A s the largest
independent provider of cellular and e-forensics solutions in the UK, moving into the field of video and digital
imaging forensics is an obvious next step."

police forces, legal services and corporate clients. Through the provision of highly specialized software,
hardware and training solutions, the company also supports the activities of law enforcement and internal

taken this opportunity to add a forensic processing service for mobile device derived and digital video evidence
as an obvious partner to our rapidly expanding audio forensics division.
"Video forensics and video image enhancement are often viewed as complex, technically difficult processes
requiring expensive hardware and specially trained personnel - none of which suits the fast-paced law enforcement
and security officers who strive to work through investigations quickly and accurately," said Laura Teodosio,
president and CEO of Salient Stills. "By adding video forensics and image enhancement to its arsenal of forensic
evidence technology, FTS is helping UK law enforcement agencies efficiently process video evidence and leads.
Salient Stills is actively expanding its dealer network and soliciting new dealers, around the world, to likewise
assist their law enforcement clients."
