Description
4-Hours of Instruction
This module aims to ensure students have a comprehensive understanding of crucial video terms and their meaning as they relate to video investigations. Students will delve deeper into the frailty of frame rates (particularly when determining speed and use of force) and explore the potential issues and benefits of certain video enhancements. The course stresses the importance of overcoming technical issues present in video prior to examination or creation of any demonstrative exhibits for investigation or court proceedings.
