Voice Technology Used in Trayvon Martin Case
Check out this story from Venture Beat about the biomentric voice analysis used in the Trayvon Martin case.
This is a perfect example of how technology advancements can help in the pursuit of justice. Though I don't usually look into technology in the criminal justice system, this is a case when I feel I must comment on it.
This case is extremely controversial. It deals with issues of race, violence and how society treats them. Now technology is being introduced. This brings up a lot of questions relating to technology in the criminal justice system.
How much trust should we put into technology? Can technology be biased? How can we use technology to eliminate race issues?
The problem with technology in the criminal justice system is that it is developed by and controlled by people, so naturally it can have biases. The people that control it can add in their likes and dislikes.
