The scenes are staged with cameras, microphones and sensors in order to monitor, record and store the data regarding human behaviour at the crime scene. In an observation room, lecturers are able to monitor (on screens) the behaviour of students when performing a crime scene investigation. Analysis is performed on movement in the crime scene, item handling, systematic approach to evidence (collection, contamination, disturbing, capturing). All data is recorded and stored, allowing lectures and students to review and improve their behaviour to maximize future results
The experience lab consists of a forensic training laboratory, a virtual reality training facility and classrooms which will provide learners with a next generation learning experience. This approach accommodates learners with varying expertise and literacy levels – greatly reducing barriers to entry for all walks of life.
