William Herschel was a British astronomer whose work in the 19th century contributed to the early development of fingerprinting as a forensic technique. He recognized the uniqueness of fingerprints and began to collect and analyze them for identification purposes, particularly in the context of civil service and criminal identification. His pioneering efforts laid the groundwork for the systematic use of fingerprints in forensic science, influencing later practices in criminal investigation and identification.
