CONFERENCE
OUTLINE
The cost of crime is well known. Find out about the new technologies that offer a vital route to improved efficiency and cost effectiveness in preventing and detecting crime.
“Advanced Technologies in Crime Prevention and Detection” builds on from last year’s ground breaking event, to draw together the very latest advances in science and technology and demonstrate novel approaches to their application in preventing and detecting crime.
This 2-day conference will allow access to the most up-to-date technology opportunities and create an important source of technical information and knowledge on new technologies that may be used to support the fight against crime. |
| |
| Conference Aims: |
 |
to raise awareness of the latest technological advances and their potential counter-crime application |
|
to create an understanding of the future capabilities of science and technology in the fight against crime |
|
to form the basis of future interaction between technology users, providers and researchers |
| |
|
| Theme & Scope: |
| The conference will demonstrate technologies that have application across the following areas: |
|
Product & Brand Protection (holograms, smart inks, security marking, anti-counterfeit/fraud, tagging and tracking, nano bar coding, watermarks, sensory packaging) |
|
Identification & Authentication (biometrics, offender tracking, photofit, DNA, LOAC, fingerprint analysis, voice recognition) |
|
Monitoring & Detection (advanced building materials, biosensors for warfare, enhanced surveillance techniques, protective wear, explosives detection) |
Presentations will be of a commercial/strategic nature and be ‘application-oriented’ rather than ‘research focused’ and heavily scientific. The event itself will address the industrial and practical applications of advanced technologies. |
