FSC239Y5 Lecture Notes - Lecture 9: Heading In The Right Direction, Forensic Facial Reconstruction, 2D Computer Graphics
Document Summary
Forensic facial reconstruction- marc dryer: to be able to identify unidenti ed skulls/fossils. Biomedical communications: visual communication of science, interpretative visualization, work in the cellular and molecular world, medical legal eld, 3d animations and scienti c topic, communicating science to a particular audience. 3d forensic facial reconstruction: unique form of scienti c visualization, police investigation, create an image of the face as it appeared in life, structure of the skull, demographic pro le, means to establish possible id. Why: possible vs. postitive identi cation, positive id established through, dna comparison, radiological comparison, odontological comparison, ngerprint comparion. What can we know: forensic, demographic, analysis, the practise assumes there is a predicable relationship between the structure of the skull and the structure of the face. Rules of thumb: width of mouth (for canines teeth, placement of eye. Whos it for: general public, two groups, casual, primed.
