VOICED: Taking crime-solving to a new dimension

The video discusses the integration of 3D animations in US courtrooms, highlighting their role in helping jurors understand complex evidence. Robert Scott's company is a key player in this field, with animations used in about 100 cases. While the judiciary increasingly accepts these animations, concerns about potential errors and high costs remain. The video also touches on the economic disadvantage for those unable to afford such technology. Despite these challenges, the industry is expected to grow, with future innovations like 3D holograms anticipated.
