Forensics

3D scanning can be used to compare objects as evidence for insurance and other investigations.

Objects can be scanned and compared to a reference object for similarities or complex dimensional analysis.

Complete scenes of buildings and interiors can be accurately scanned to visualise and recreate events as animations or movies.

For example, crime scenes and car accident scenes can be 3D scanned without disturbing critical pieces of evidence. 3D scanning captures the exact position of all items in the area accurately and effciently.

3D scanning can help reduce the time required for onsite forensic analysis, thus minimising the time required for sealing off a crime scene.

Using an appropriate scene scanner will allow investigators to make detailed measurements in a 3D environment at any time after the event. Crucial information that may be missed by manual measurement techniques can be obtained simply by accessing the 3D model.

The 3D scan of a scene can be used to create an accurate animation of the incident, just like movie special effects. The animation can be used for verification of eyewitness accounts and studying different scenarios by moving people and objects at different velocities. An animation shown in court will communicate the complex interactions of an event clearly and without ambiguity.
