Collision Sciences / Technology

Vehicle evidence.
Connected intelligence.

CrashScan connects field acquisition, cloud processing and engineering expertise to bring recorded vehicle data into the investigation.

THE CRASHSCAN PLATFORM
Acquire. Preserve. Understand.

One connected workflow

From the vehicle to the investigation.

A supported vehicle can hold a valuable record of the moments around a collision. CrashScan gives trained professionals a mobile workflow to retrieve that information and a structured path to understand it.

Connect approved hardware to a compatible mobile device, follow the acquisition workflow, and submit the data for processing and reporting. Cloud functions require internet access; vehicle and module support must be checked for each assignment.

Collision Sciences claims report and raw data report

Two ways to work with the evidence.

Collision Sciences Claims Report and Raw Data Report support different stages of review. Available information varies by vehicle, module and recorded event.

Raw data report

The Raw Data Report and .csv files are included with the Collision Sciences Claims Report and provided on request through support@collisionsciences.ca. Include your report identifier. The Raw Data Report supports evidentiary review when a case proceeds to litigation; interpretation and admissibility depend on the case.

Validation & technical transparency

Confidence starts
with scrutiny.

Controlled crash tests, independent measurement comparisons and cross-tool studies address different questions about vehicle recording and data extraction.

Our library brings the methods, comparisons and limitations together. Findings apply to the vehicles, parameters and conditions tested; agreement between tools is only one part of a sound validation approach.
