New simpler and cost-effective forensics test helps identify touch DNA March, 2024
Research has found a less expensive and easier to use test to learn more about forensic touch DNA. This research has important implications for forensic investigations and being able to identify DNA from a primary contact -- someone who may have committed the crime -- as well as secondary DNA that was inadvertently and indirectly […]
This tiny, tamper-proof ID tag can authenticate almost anything February, 2024
A cryptographic tag uses terahertz waves to authenticate items by recognizing the unique pattern of microscopic metal particles that are mixed into the glue that sticks the tag to the item's surface.
A sleeker facial recognition technology tested on Michelangelo's David February, 2024
Many people are familiar with facial recognition systems that unlock smartphones and game systems or allow access to our bank accounts online. But the current technology can require boxy projectors and lenses. Now, researchers report on a sleeker 3D surface imaging system with flatter, simplified optics. In proof-of-concept demonstrations, the new system recognized the face […]
AI discovers that not every fingerprint is unique January, 2024
Engineers have built a new AI that shatters a long-held belief in forensics -- that fingerprints from different fingers of the same person are unique. It turns out they are similar, only we've been comparing fingerprints the wrong way!
Monitoring nuclear weapons stockpiles with radio waves October, 2023
Monitoring whether states are complying with disarmament treaties is not an easy task. An international team has been exploring remote monitoring with the help of two antennas and a couple of mirrors.
Cat-ching criminals with DNA from pet hairs October, 2023
Cat hair could be the purr-fect way to catch criminals, according to researchers.
Not the usual suspects: New interactive lineup boosts eyewitness accuracy October, 2023
Allowing eyewitnesses to dynamically explore digital faces using a new interactive procedure can significantly improve identification accuracy compared to the video lineup and photo array procedures used by police worldwide, a new study reveals.
Engineering team uses diamond microparticles to create high security anti-counterfeit labels July, 2023
Researchers have developed a pioneering technological solution that counterfeiters have no response to.
Researchers visualize activity of CRISPR genetic scissors July, 2023
Scientists have developed a new method to measure the smallest twists and torques of molecules within milliseconds. The method makes it possible to track the gene recognition of CRISPR-Cas protein complexes, also known as 'genetic scissors', in real time and with the highest resolution. With the data obtained, the recognition process can be accurately characterized […]
Can investigators use household dust as a forensic tool? April, 2023
It is possible to retrieve forensically relevant information from human DNA in household dust.
