Comparison of Fingerprints in a simulated case using the database

Forensic experts match crime scene fingerprints to known prints using automated systems or manual methods, aiding criminal investigations.

In a simulated case, fingerprints found at a crime scene are compared to a database of known prints. Forensic experts use automated systems or manual methods to identify potential matches based on ridge patterns and minutiae points. Results are reported to aid in suspect identification and criminal investigations.
