A capability with a forensic purpose
SPOT investigates whether digital imagery is consistent with physical camera capture. It draws on research into image formation and sensor pattern noise, including published work on synthetic media.
RHEM Labs assesses SPOT at TRL 5 and makes the capability available for commercial use with scope and support agreed for the application. Further evaluation and integration support are needed to progress towards TRL 9.
The next research questions
Operational users can help identify useful decision points and reporting needs. Integration partners can help define how a capability would fit into existing workflows. Independent evaluators and research partners can support testing under representative conditions.
These steps are part of establishing requirements and evaluating practical use. They do not establish that SPOT is validated for every operational setting.
