Most firms cite the literature. BRi tests it — with independent testing programs, calibrated instrumentation, and experiments designed around the questions that decide each case.
All instrumentation is meticulously calibrated, portable, and primed for instant data acquisition — in the lab or at the scene.
Bosch CDR tool, Hyundai & Kia EDR kits, and Tesla EDR kits — imaging the seconds that decide cases.
FARO Focus3D laser scanner for millimeter-precise scene and vehicle documentation.
RaceLogic VBoxSport performance meter for speed, distance, and acceleration testing.
Tri-axial accelerometers for in-vehicle and human-volunteer testing programs.
Datalogging sound and light meters for premises and equipment investigations.
Digital force gauges plus access to a university-grade Instron materials testing device.
BRi's research programs have encompassed human volunteers in low-speed rear-end and frontal impacts, as well as occupants exposed to emergency elevator stops — producing firsthand biomechanical data on events the literature barely covers.
This is the firm's structural advantage: when opposing counsel asks "what is your opinion based on," the answer can include measurements we took ourselves.
Our analyses draw on the authoritative datasets of the field — continuously updated, never taken on faith.
Thousands of vehicle-to-barrier and vehicle-to-vehicle crash tests from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Hundreds of instrumented crash tests from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
Thousands of real-world vehicle impacts investigated and documented by the National Automotive Sampling System.
Thousands of research articles from the Society of Automotive Engineers and other authorities.
Testing, inspection, and analysis — scoped honestly, executed rigorously, documented for trial.
