Area of Science:

  • Forensic Science
  • Computer Graphics
  • Medical Visualization

Background:

  • Forensic computer animations have been used in US courts for a decade.
  • Their adoption in UK legal spheres is a recent development.
  • University of Nottingham's Aims Research has critically investigated reconstruction methodologies and raised the profile of this data visualization technique in the UK.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To apply, evaluate, and develop novel 3-dimensional computer graphics (CG) visualization techniques.
  • To explore the use of virtual reality (VR) in presenting and investigating forensic information related to the human body.
  • To assess the potential of these visualizations in forensic pathology investigations.

Main Methods:

  • Development and application of novel 3D CG visualization techniques.
