Juries and interactive visual evidence: impacts on deliberation processes and outcomes

澳大利亚面临着以恐怖主义网络、复杂的洗钱和人口走私行动为形式的新型安全威胁。法新社和检察官正在开发新的显示技术，以便向陪审员解释复杂的信息，从而简化法庭程序，缩短审判时间。这一发展的前沿是交互式展示，包括计算机模拟和3600个犯罪现场重建。法官将使用关于陪审团如何使用这些信息的经验信息，以制定适当的指导方针，以接受交互式视觉证据，而法庭规划师和建筑师将使用项目数据来确定对法庭程序和设计的影响。

Australia confronts new types of security threat in the form of terrorist networks, sophisticated money-laundering and people-smuggling operations. The AFP and prosecutors are developing new display technologies to explain complex information to jurors, in the process simplifying court processes and shortening trials. At the cutting edge of this development are interactive displays, including computer simulations and 360o crime scene reconstructions. Judges will use empirical information about how juries use such information in order to develop appropriate guidelines for admitting interactive visual evidence, while court planners and architects will use the project data to identify implications for court procedures and design.
