Case Study: Dr. Dennis Dirkmaat’s Forensic Anthropology Team improves crime scene analysis with Artec 3D scanners from CAD MicroSolutions Inc.

Dr. Dennis Dirkmaat’s forensic anthropology team handles about 100 cases yearly with CAD MicroSolutions Inc.

The forensic anthropology team led by Dr. Dennis Dirkmaat required a method to thoroughly and accurately document outdoor crime scenes and human remains for both investigation and courtroom presentation. To meet this challenge, they worked with vendor CAD MicroSolutions Inc. and implemented advanced 3D scanning technology.

CAD MicroSolutions Inc. provided a solution using Artec 3D scanners, including the Space Spider, Leo, and Ray models. This technology enabled the team to create comprehensive digital captures and detailed, lifelike bone replicas. The results revolutionized their forensic analysis, improving its accuracy and speed, and proved invaluable for presenting evidence in court.
