Re-creating a scene as accurately and as realistically as possible is what 3D forensic technology brings to an attorney’s toolkit. Unlike traditional 2D diagrams, whiteboard easels and static 2D photographs, 3D laser scanning and 360°imaging can help members of the jury feel like they’ve returned to the scene of a crime. That authenticity helps advance an immersive, visually compelling report each side will use to progress their case.

1. 评估和捕捉现场证据
今天:
采用手动方法捕捉现场需要耗费几小时,速度较慢,出现人为错误的几率较大,而且捕捉细节(如子弹轨迹或血迹形态)困难又耗时。
采用三维工具:
使用 FARO®Focus 激光扫描仪和/或手持式激光扫描仪可以快速而准确地捕捉整个犯罪现场,捕捉每一个细节。
FARO Focus 3D 激光扫描仪每秒可捕捉 0.6-1.2 亿个数据点,Freestyle 2 手持式扫描仪可以在 6 分钟内扫描整个房间。
-
2. 准备数据用于分析
今天:
手动归档在现场不同来源收集的数据,包括所有人工测量结果、记录和照片。
采用三维工具:
扫描现场的工作结束后,立即维护数据的完整性并存档。三维扫描可捕捉到每一个细节,便于回溯并查看直至调查后期才认定为具有重要性的证据。
-
3. 处理和管理数据
今天:
手动处理从各种来源捕捉到的数据,或使用并非专为复杂的犯罪现场重建而设计的软件。
采用三维工具:
使用独立软件 FARO® SCENE Software 合并不同来源的数据,然后添加测量结果、注释及图像。
将数据从任意激光扫描仪导入到 FARO® Zone 3D Software 中,创建逼真的图表,并进行血迹和子弹轨迹分析。
FARO Zone 3D 可以生成完整报告。
-
4. 分析数据和创建图表
今天:
手动创建图表并将照片、各种测量结果及其他2D证据拼接在一起,试图创建一张完整的犯罪现场图。
采用三维工具:
通过以下形式从各个角度分析和呈现现场:
- • 将犯罪涉及人的行为制作成动画
- • 创建精确到毫米的比例图,以展示复杂室内空间
- • 在图表中插入模型,以展示特定受害人或证人的视角
-
5. 审理前准备文件
今天: 编制试用包...
- • 照片
- • 手绘草图
- • 全站仪图表
采用三维工具:
编制实质性审理资料包…
- • 详细的数字报告
- • 二维图表
- • 俯瞰视频
- • 三维动画
- • 无人机图像
“借助 FARO 扫描仪,我们能够创建照相写实的全彩色3D图,供检察官在法庭上使用。这些图像可以帮助陪审团透过2D图无法提供的视角,了解实际现场的样貌。”
