Facial compositing has developed significantly over the years. From beginning with a sketch artist only using pencil and paper to being computerized, the use of facial composite systems has been taken advantage of by many law enforcement agencies. The computerized system offers many features that are not possible by a sketch artist. These features include skills that make the facial composite process easier for participants. Although there are some minor issues with the use of the system, there are also many beneficial aspects to the new advancement in technology. The technological advances offered by EvoFit is a great example of how the systems work and provide law enforcement with high tech software that allows witness to tap into the recognition part of the brain rather than attempting to recall an exact facial image. Computerized facial composite systems growing popularity will continue to improve and produce more issues but with the help of more informed procedural steps these issues can be avoided.
