Abstract: There is provided a method for estimating forensic details of vehicle-pedestrian collisions. The method comprises determining a set of parameters of the collision, the parameters including the position where the pedestrians head impacted the vehicle, inputting said parameters into a collision model, estimating forensic details of the collision using the collision model in a first spatial dimension using the position where the pedestrians head impacted the vehicle with respect to the first spatial dimension, estimating forensic details of the collision using the collision model in a second spatial dimension using the position where the pedestrians head impacted the vehicle with respect to the second spatial dimension, and averaging the results of the estimated forensic details from the first spatial dimension and the second spatial dimension to arrive at a final estimation of the forensic details of the collision.
