The　3-level　features　of　Latent　fingerprints　(LFPs)　are　pivotal　in　linking　suspects　with　problematic　or　incomplete　fingerprint　data,　constituting　one　of　the　most　robust　forms　of　evidence.　Aggregation-induced　emission　(AIE)　materials,　known　for　their　heightened　emissive　properties　in　high　aggregation　states,　provide　a　robust　and　powerful　approach　for　developing　techniques　for　3-level　details　of　LFPs.　So　far,　tremendous　efforts　have　been　devoted　to　solving　high　background　fluorescence　interference　during　the　3-level　LFPs　visualization　process.　This　review　commences　with　an　overview　of　3-level　features　and　summarizes　the　interaction　and　mechanism　of　visualizing　LFPs　involving　AIE　materials　and　LFPs　secretions.　Moreover,　it　encompasses　strategies　to　enhance　the　contrast　and　brightness　of　3-level　LFPs　images.　We　highlight　the　mechanism　of　AIE′s　physicochemical　properties　and　their　effects　on　the　visualization　of　3-level　LFPs.　Additionally,　we　provide　insights　into　potential　challenges　and　opportunities　in　this　emerging　field.　©　2024　Wiley-VCH　GmbH.
