Here is a short video clip showing what a virtual reality crime scene might look like after a bloodstain pattern analysis has been performed with a laser scan of the scene.
The video shows Uwe Woessner from the University of Stuttgart manipulating a laser scan around him and with my bloodstain pattern analysis all in 3D. You can find information about his setup by looking for "The Cave" + University of Stuttgart in Google.
Special thanks to the Ontario Police College for inviting me to participate and to the Advanced Bloodstain Pattern Analysis Class of 2014!
