Forensic Reconstruction - The Killing of Mark Duggan

Accepted submission by rob_on_earth http://www.jumpstation.co.uk at 2020-06-10 16:17:53 from the blender was used for what dept.
Science

This is fascinating look at a crime scene recreated with Blender(and other tools) from publicly available information.

Blender is a free and open source 3D modelling, animation and rendering solution, that runs on Windows, Mac and Linux.

There are a number of iffy/confirmation bias conclusions, but they also identified irrefutable evidence that led to the family of Mark Duggan receiving compensation for his death.

The 23 minute video is well presented and well worth watching, as they collect images for photogrammetry, stabilise shaky footage and recreate 3D walk-throughs in VR from multiple perspectives.

They also make the .blend files available for anyone to conduct their own investigations.
