Application Description

Investigating vehicle collisions requires thorough data collection. The EDR "Blackbox" Scan Tool and PDF Accident Reports offered by Collision Sciences streamline this process. Using the CrashScan app with an OBDLink MX+ Bluetooth adapter, investigators can access crucial data from a vehicle's computer modules, including the Event Data Recorder (EDR), where supported. This data helps validate insurance claims and provides valuable insights into liability.

Vehicle Support (EDR & Full System Diagnostic Scan): CrashScan supports over 3000 unique vehicle year/make/models internationally. Check compatibility here: https://collisionsciences.ca/reports/check_support/

Contextual Accident Reports: Successful CrashScan reports detail impact severity, orientation (front/rear/side), and provide crucial context such as:

  • Accident severity (minor, moderate, or severe)
  • EDR trigger thresholds
  • 5 seconds of pre-crash data (speed, brake/accelerator pedal use, steering)
  • Occupant count and seatbelt status
  • Estimated repair cost
  • Likelihood of structural crush damage
  • Injury risk thresholds (whiplash, injury duration)
  • G-force context compared to daily activities

*Injury risk algorithms utilize stored acceleration values, scientific articles, and databases like the National Automotive Sampling System (NASS).
