Application Of 3D Technology In Criminal Proceedings

Abstract

Under current conditions, there is practical demand for the introduction of 3D technology into law enforcement activities, which can be used to solve a wide range of criminal proceedings. Based on positive examples of foreign experience in application of this technology in combating crime, there were practical opportunities of 3D technology in activities of the investigator, expert, in criminal proceedings including those with the participation of jurors. It was revealed that the application of 3D technology in the criminal proceedings in Russia is currently at the stage of formation. The reason is in a complex of problems of logistical, ethical-legal nature, as well as the lack of a proper methodological support. The creation of new and improvement of existing computer programs for creating a 3D model of objects related to the committed crime, depending on the specific tasks of criminal proceedings was proposed. The need for the settlement of legal issues of the possibility of using information and communication technologies in pre-trial and trial investigations was indicated. The organization of training of investigators, experts, prosecutors on the methodology of using 3D technologies was proposed in specific areas of their activities at the advanced training courses, etc.
