Conventional capture methods and techniques are laborious and time consuming. The latest generation of 3D LaserrnScanners can capture millions of data points per seconds, scan in cramped spaces and are capable of scanning while invertedrnwhen evidence. Crime Scene Investigators and Technicians can now more accurately and quickly document scenes of all types.rnThe same technology is applicable to accident reconstruction as well and can assist in the prosecution of vehicular homicides. Thernlogical extension of Laser Scanning technology is presentation of the evidence at trial. This truly brings television’s CSI style ofrngraphics into any courtroom in the US. Evidence can be presented in a compelling, tactile manner. While the application of 3DrnLaser Scanning is relatively new to criminal prosecution, it is making significant inroads in our legal system.
