blunt force trauma
What happens if a drone hits you in the head?
A crash test dummy gets hit in its "head" by a drone. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) wants to know, so they conducted a study to understand and mitigate the risks of drones flying over people, and what happens if a drone loses connection to its pilot or just crashes to the ground. It turns out that small drones are safer near people than was thought. "We were able to identify blunt force trauma, penetration injuries and lacerations as the most significant threats to people on the ground," said David Arterburn, an engineer at the University of Alabama in Huntsville and lead investigator for the study, which was conducted by several universities and released Friday afternoon in Washington, D.C. As part of the test, the researchers dropped a typical drone (a Phantom 3, weighing 2.7 pounds) on a crash test dummy at a typical speed of about 34 mph.
'Bones' Season 12, Episode 2 Review: The Brain In The Bot
A couple of bickering trainers at a dog show lose track of their animals, who run into the woods and start feeding on a corpse. There is evidence all over the place, as well as indications of multiple scavengers. Based on tissue decomp, Saroyan puts time of death at about three to four days prior. Brennan estimates the victim was male based on the rugged linea aspera of the femur and in his 40s based on the degeneration of the femoral head. There is no sign of a struggle, but there is plastic fused to his wrist. Back at the Jeffersonian, Brennan and Daisy, who is now Dr. Wick, go over the body.
