More Than Software: Amped Training Teaches You The Science Of Forensic Video And Image Analysis

When working with images and videos in a forensic setting, clicking buttons won’t get you far. What truly makes the difference is understanding the evidence: its origin, its journey, and the challenges it presents.

That’s the philosophy behind Amped Software’s training programs, where image processing and forensic science meet real-world application. Amped’s goal isn’t just to teach you how to use their tools; it’s to help you understand the “why” behind every click.

In their classes, Amped’s expert trainers go beyond teaching you how to use our tools; they also cover the scientific theory behind forensic image and video analysis. Amped believes that understanding the theory is essential to becoming a better investigator.

The expert-led sessions combine hands-on software practice with foundational scientific concepts, from understanding compression and video encoding to applying proper methodology in evidence analysis and processing.

Tools may evolve and change but scientific understanding stays with you throughout your entire career.
