Knott Laboratory provides forensic engineering and animation, Civil & Structural, and Fire & Explosion Investigation services to reconstruct accidents. Digital Media Forensics™ (DMF) is a state-of-the-art process that uses existing digital evidence and data to establish the facts in a case, eliminate issues, create transparency, and communicate the case visually to a jury. Knott Laboratory is the leader in the field because of our unique combination of engineers, visualization, and law enforcement experts on the DMF staff. Cameras are becoming more prolific with each passing year, and the footage and photographs they produce hold far more information beyond the picture they display. Our DMF experts can take this footage and derive crucial information to prove or disprove points of a case. This information is then presented visually in a way that is easy for anyone to understand. For example, our Digital Media Forensics™ team can use video, audio, and data evidence from: And merge this evidence with a Point Cloud to find these key factors: Additionally, our team can use the methods below to further illuminate findings in a case: Every detail is scientifically accurate. Our goal is to create transparency and clearly present the facts of your case. The use of 3D laser scanning technology and point clouds greatly aids the process of creating photo realistic 3D environments, vehicles and other objects, which can improve the overall quality of the… Knott Laboratory uses UAV investigations for accident reconstruction, building exteriors/roofs inspection, aerial imagery, 3D modeling of a site and indoor warehouse surveys. Our staff are certified… With the use of modern technology, Knott Laboratory reconstructed a shooting incident to assess whether reported observations were consistent with physical evidence.
Photogrammetry is the science of obtaining accurate 3D measurements from multiple photos. “Photogram” is a photographic image made without a camera by placing objects directly onto the surface of a… Our forensic experts use a methodology called matchmoving for analyzing objects (vehicles, pedestrians, etc.) visible in video captured by moving and/or zooming cameras.
Matchmoving (also referred… Knott Laboratory provides expert accident reconstruction and analysis for attorneys and insurance professionals on a nationwide basis. Our forensic engineers have investigated and reconstructed… Motion Capture (MoCap) is the process of recording the movement of people and is used in a variety of fields including forensic engineering and animation. Here is a demonstration of Knott Lab’s… Knott Laboratory’s forensic animators and engineers combine their skills to reconstruct vehicular motion during accidents using a physics-based crash simulation software program.
