A system for detecting UV-light-fluorescent indicia ( 14 ) with a camera ( 18 ) includes a camera flash ( 20 ) that emits visible light, a conversion device ( 24 ) mounted over the camera flash that converts the emitted visible light ( 17 ) to UV light ( 16 ), and a sensor that captures a visible-light image of the indicia after the indicia is exposed to the UV light. |
