The scientific article is devoted to the problems of using forensic examinations and their results in the pre-trial investigation. Perspective directions of development of criminology according to its components are defined. The current state of development of forensic technology, tools and cybernetics in general, which is successfully used in forensics makes it possible to use retinal schemes to register criminals.

It is noted that the development of forensic technologies involves the development of information retrieval programs, such as Automated Workplaces (AWP) for pre-trial investigation units of Ukraine, as well as other persons authorized to investigate, reference information programs.

It is effective to use global satellite positioning systems (JPS devices) while investigating crimes, ZD laser scanners when inspecting the scene, as small electronic devices allow you to capture the geographical coordinates of any point, location of objects at the scene, the distance between them rather quickly.

A new step in forensics in the near future will be the use of “latent fingerprint” (LTF) technology, which will greatly simplify the identification of criminals.

Methods of forensic examination in criminal proceedings and their improvement using the latest technologies that use computer programs such as “Photorobot”, the use of audio and video, polygraph, spectrograph, etc. to reproduce human memory and the development of forensic technology, which involves development of information retrieval programs.

These new approaches and knowledge used by forensics are a necessary condition for the rapid detection of the crime, detection and seizure of physical evidence for their further expert studying.

The use of the latest achievements of forensic technology in the detection of hidden traces is the key to the formation of a quality evidence base and identification of a particular person during the pre-trial investigation.

Key words: forensics, forensics theory, crime investigation, criminological means of research.
