Accident Reconstruction

Our Services

Accident reconstruction is critical in understanding the dynamics of a collision, the factors leading up to it, and the forces involved. ASC Forensics uses advanced technologies to reconstruct and analyze these events, providing clear, evidence-based insights for even the most complex cases. 
 

Our Approach

Our team follows a methodical, scientific, multi-step process in reconstructing real-world incidents. Often beginning with on-site site and vehicle inspections where data is collected for our evaluation. ASC employs advanced simulation and analysis tools to visualize collision sequences, impact angles, and contributing factors. Each step in our process builds upon the last and results in an understanding of the totality of the evidence conveyed in a way that the jury can understand. 
 

State-of-the-Art Technology and Expertise

ASC is equipped with cutting-edge equipment, from 3D FARO laser scanning to advanced simulation software, enabling precise documentation and analysis of real-world crashes. Our technology allows for detailed modeling of collision events, ensuring that the necessary factors are accounted for in our analysis. 

 

Simulations

ASC develops high-quality simulations to represent accident dynamics, collision avoidance technologies (CAT), line-of-sight characteristics, and to solve complicated accident reconstruction scenarios. These visuals are crafted to clarify technical findings and facilitate an understanding of complex issues in a way that a jury can understand.

Common Cases

Crash Severity Analysis

  Assessing the severity of a collision by analyzing impact force angles (PDOF) and crush damage, providing a clear understanding of crash dynamics and likely occupant kinematics. 

ATV/UTV Crash Analysis

  Investigating incidents involving ATV, UTV, and SXS (side-by-side) vehicles, focusing on unique factors like vehicle stability, handling, and environmental conditions. 

Forensic Video Analysis

  Analyzing onboard or stationary video footage to accurately determine vehicle positions, speeds, trajectories, impact points, final rest locations, and roadway markings. This detailed examination provides meaningful insights into the causative factors of a collision. 

FARO 3D Laser Scanning

   Capturing precise, three-dimensional laser scan data of incident scenes and vehicles to create detailed models for an in-depth reconstruction analysis. 

Drone Technology

  Utilizing aerial drones to document crash scenes and capture data from multiple perspectives enhances spatial awareness and an understanding of potential causative factors of the collision. 

EDR (Black Box) Imaging

  Retrieving and interpreting Event Data Recorder (EDR) data to uncover pre-impact vehicle conditions, such as speed, braking, and steering inputs, as well as the performance of the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). 

Testing Services

  Conducting focused tests on vehicles or their components to determine their functionality, durability, and performance given the specific, real-world incident scenario. 

Collision Simulations

  Creating detailed simulations of crash scenarios to model vehicle dynamics, impact forces, and collision sequences under incident-relevant conditions. 

Courtroom Animations

  Developing clear, visual animations to illustrate accident dynamics and technical findings, making complex case facts understandable to the jury.
