Electronic Facial Identification Technique

You've seen these wanted posters. They will generally include a picture of the criminal himself when a photograph is available, or of a facial composite image produced by a police artist. Wanted posters are usually produced by a police or other public government body for display in a public place.

Composite images for use in wanted posters can be created with various methods, including EFIT, an Electronic Facial Identification Technique via computer. EFIT is the most realistic and successful computerized composite system available. Originally designed for artists and non artists, it has been made the most widely used system by detectives and investigators around the world.
