  • Abstract
    The paper describes some of important technologies in the firearm identification using forensic ballistics specimens. The mapping of micro-surfaces on regions on the specimens for comparison to establish identification according to the precision of measurement of the features has been proposed. The physical techniques of linescan, laser depth proofing, and photonic 3D topography can be developed into future tools for forensic ballisticians for identification of cartridge cases and projectiles.
