The value of simulations - FARO Software
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=221Wot1AyyE
Limitations/weaknesses
It's only as good as the data that has been input
relies on scientific principal/ law or real world accident data which is not always accurate
Because of the graphics and information within the program, would require more advanced technology
this make it less accessible or unacceptable to some industries with not as much of a financial turn around, like aviation
video shows real world capacity but can't predict what it does not know. All variables must be accurate to get an accurate result. if the person using it misses something, the simulation or reconstruction may impact on further investigation
the software is not easily used by anyone - requires more advanced mathematical knowledge and technological savvy to understand and utilise the features available
the video reinforces that the tool can be used to reflect your opinion / bias based on the evidence
this can affect the integrity of the investigation
reconstructions/simulations published online come across as more of a sale pitch - show high tech applications which would limit the customer base
human/machine interface means there is always likelihood of machine/operator error - which can affect the integrity of the simulation
unlike Vertical Crash does not have pricing readily available
customer must request a quote - for customised price, giving a sense of in-affordability
Strengths
case studies that show real world applications and usefulness by reputable sources such as government departments
able to change multiple variables , making it useful as both a prediction tool for companies to analyse safety as well as for visualising an accident
has a list of patents owned by the company - shows innovation
not just targeted to mostly crash / collision but crime and fire investigations
shows real diversity of the software
has a wider range of developed tools, such as 3D scanners , 3D and 4D software to highlight its scope and capacity for application in various industries
advanced realistic looking graphics
not only develop but manufacture their own programs and software
credibility and knowledge of authors
unlike PC-Crash the website has a bit more information on the business history.
first developed by two students whilst completing their PhD's in biomedical engineering
did they complete these PhD's? is the relevant? No information on website alludes to credentials of anyone within the business
brief outline of the change in business / timeline of milestones they have achieved - shows continual review and improvement of its model
has a list of patents owned by the company - shows innovation
company discusses company leadership with brief history.
a lot of the higher management have bachelors in financial or other discipline
videos come across as more selling/sales pitch videos than educating/teaching people on the value
are they the best decision makers. does financial gain impact on the product integrity?
