KEY OBJECTIVES

ABOUT THE PROJECT
The 3D Interactive Lineups (3DIL) project is transforming eyewitness identification through the use of 3D virtual reality (VR). Traditional 2D photo lineups can often lead to mistaken identifications, contributing to wrongful convictions. Our innovative approach uses advanced 3D modeling and neural rendering to create lifelike, interactive facial models, allowing witnesses to view suspects from multiple angles in VR. This project brings together an international team of experts in psychology, computer science, and law enforcement to set a new standard in criminal justice procedures.
MEET OUR TEAM

Enhancing Identification Accuracy
Our 3D VR lineups allow witnesses to view and interact with 3D facial models, providing a more realistic and accurate representation compared to traditional 2D photos.
Reducing Wrongful Convictions
By leveraging interactive 3D technology, the project aims to minimize eyewitness errors, which have historically contributed to wrongful convictions in criminal cases.
Innovative Use of 3D VR Technology
3DIL integrates the latest advancements in 3D modeling, neural rendering, and virtual reality to create an immersive, user-friendly system for law enforcement and legal professionals.
