The College of Criminal Justice Education and Forensics (CCJEF) has strengthened its forensic laboratory capabilities by acquiring an Advanced Laser Trajectory Finder Kit.

The equipment enables students to visualize and analyze projectile paths during simulated shooting-incident investigations. It supports hands-on training in forensic ballistics, trajectory analysis, crime scene reconstruction, evidence documentation, and scientific interpretation.

The kit complements the College’s existing Leica 3D Laser Scanner and Leica Map360, integrating trajectory analysis with advanced three-dimensional documentation, reconstruction, and visualization.
