Abstract
The advances in scientific technology in the recent past have taken the modern world by the tempest.1 AI has been introduced to describe the emergence of an interconnected world that expands beyond the purely digital domain to interact with the physical and biological ones. The manuscript focuses on Virtobot, an AI which is a product of interdisciplinary sciences that is believed to be the future of forensic sciences and criminal investigation. Virtobot uses a technology called virtopsy which is based on imaging techniques and forensic medicine and is touted for its non-invasive autopsy procedure. Studies show that the level of accuracy of Virtobot’s imaging technique can help detect peculiarities and injuries that may go unnoticed in traditional autopsies. For the first time ever, a forensic examination of a living person seems possible through Virtobot which has a stronger imaging capability than a CT scan or an MRI.
