The idea of using the fingerprint to identify people is not new (Ashbaugh‚ 1999; German‚ 2006).

These marks they used‚ however‚ as a signature‚ rather than a means of identifying someone. Centuries later‚ a professor in plant morphology‚ Marcello Malpighi‚ described fingerprints as having ridges‚ spirals and loops

chain reaction. How are computers used in fingerprint analysis? They are used to identify minutiae which may be loops‚ dots‚ forks‚ islands and so forth. Comparison points must be perfectly matched for two fingerprints to be considered identical Who is a pioneer in fingerprint analysis? Describe a famous case that this person was involved in.

Fingerprint analysis had been used for over 100 years in law enforcement. The first forensic organization to identify criminals was established in 1915. In that time fingerprints were being used to track a criminal’s record‚ including previous arrests to decide decisions like sentencing‚ probation‚ and pardoning decisions. As technology has advanced so has our use for fingerprints. We have now been able to use fingerprints for background checks‚ biometric security (a way to access computers‚ electronic

The Methods of Latent Fingerprint Discovery Finding and Retrieving Latent Prints from a Crime Scene Megan M. Anderson Brevard Community College Abstract This paper explores the methods of latent fingerprint discovery the finding and retrieving of latent prints from a crime scene. Here we will review how to find a latent print using alternative light sources and what those light sources are. We will also review the surface characteristics of evidence and the purpose of sequential processing

investigation of the Madrid bombings with the fingerprint evidence? While investigating a series of explosions in the subways of Madrid‚ authorities had found partial fingerprints over the bag of detonators. The fingerprint evidence made its way to the FBI. When running the fingerprint evidence through their system‚ they found a fingerprint match. The match belonged to an attorney in Portland‚ Oregon. What assumptions have been made about fingerprints? What are the problems with these assumptions
