Abstract
This chapter consists of various applications in terms of investigative tasks, where properties of both light and sound can be explored. The activities incorporate a larger context, where the objective is to provide evidence to help solve a crime.
By the end of this chapter you will have an understanding of
-
The uses of light and sound in criminal investigations
-
How the way sound is reflected from surfaces is incorporated into the design of motion surveillance detectors
-
How a motion detector can be used in a variety of investigations
-
How a light sensor can be used to determine human reaction times.
