Answer:

Forensics

Step-by-step explanation:

Technology has over time advacnced from what it used to be. It has gone fat beyond what most people can imagine.

The pieces of technology such as IBIS and NIBIN have impacted the field of firearm evidence because of their main purpose.

The IBIS or Integrated Ballistic Identification System, Is a database of digital images showing the identifying features of bullets and castings.

The NBIN or National Integrated Ballistic Identification Network, provides law enforcement agencies around the world with information from the IBIS.

With these two pieces of technology forensic scientists around the world can identify bullet and casting features, these two can possibly find a match to a gun. They also help with knowing things like the distance from where a bullet was shot from the gun to the target. This is indeed a form of Technology Improvements, we. wont say that technology in the forensics world has not drastically improved, but these two are a step in the right direction.
