Abstract
This study deals with the gait part of video forensics wherein humans can be uniquely identified based on their movements. This is a very crucial part of evidence as every human has unique traits of human body movements and hence if a video is to be analyzed to prove a person's presence, this study will help in opening minds to think further analysis concerning gait. This gait pattern can help analysts in matching patterns of the person in question and it can also be reliable due to the natural traits shown by a human. This paper will give an overview to readers as gait is the most undervalued evidence of a crime as based on the natural traits and uniqueness of body movements, it becomes easy to prove suspicion. Several challenges are present in biological forensics, gait can be said to be the strongest vidence as perpetrators cannot imitate or mimic to be someone else hence counting gait pattern as an authenticated proof of evidence in the court of law.
