The team is looking to study how acceleration signatures measured with in-floor sensors can be used to identify a shooting incident. The team built a shooting platform that can be instrumented with multiple accelerometers, much like the SEB instrumentation project. A group of students: Derek Carpenter, Chris Keener, Mico Woolard, Joe Hamilton and Remi Leullieux, were involved in the process from platform design, build and testing.
Thanks to the graciousness of the VT Police department this took place in the private VT Police shooting range and had the assistance of Officer Austin during the process. The group had several safety briefings and safety training before the live tests.
Going to work is very exciting and some days its absolutely awesome. Details of the data collected should come in the future.
