![]() ![]() The benefits and the legal issues related to the use of Dash Cams will be discussed. In order to verify the inevitability of the collision and the reliability of Dash Cam data, the assessment of the dynamics was performed by comparing Dash Cam footage with standard mathematical formulas. ![]() The aim of this study is to present a case in which the video-recording captured from a Dash Cam was crucial to properly reconstruct the events of a crash. However, Dash Cams might attract negative attitudes due to privacy concerns, thus in many countries they are legal only under determined conditions, or even illegal. Furthermore, the more sophisticated Dash Cams allow the recording of other specific data such as GPS data files and measurements of acceleration and deceleration (g-force), speed and steering angle of the vehicle and this could make the reconstruction of the crash events easier. Some modern technologies referred to as “Dual Dash Cams”, include a second camera to record the interior and/or rear of the car. As the technology became cheaper, Dash Cams also became accessible to other drivers and the number of vehicles mounting Dash Cams rapidly increased. Since the beginning of their use in the 1980s in Texas, such video recordings have increased the safety of officers working in remote areas. ĭashboard-mounted cameras or “Dash Cams” are a digital video recorder (DVR) which can be installed on the dashboard or on the windscreen, by means of a suction cup, and continuously record the view through the glass of a windscreen. Even the airbag opening might trigger the collection of such data, which could be used in the incident investigation. vehicle speed, acceleration, brake application etc.) could be obtained from event data recorders (EDRs). Other sources for pre-crash information (e.g. Sophisticated computer software programs and reconstruction models can also be applied, with good estimation of the dynamics of the crash, though the degree of certainty required for criminal proceedings is rarely achieved. In addition, especially when the collection of statements from eyewitnesses is delayed, the recollection of the events becomes increasingly difficult over time. However, sometimes circumstantial data is missing, there are no eyewitnesses, or drivers and passengers do not survive to tell their stories or they have difficulty recalling the details of the events as a result of the injuries sustained in the collision. ![]() For some incidents, circumstantial data may be enough to resolve questions concerning the crash. The reconstruction of the dynamics of a traffic crash is usually achieved by interviewing involved subjects, eyewitnesses and through post-collision mechanical or engineering examination. Advantages and disadvantages of the use of Dash Cams will be discussed, focusing on the profound differences in the related national and international regulations. Based on the present case, in traffic crashes, the search for Dash Cams during the DSI may be recommended and the video recordings should be analyzed in the setting of a multidisciplinary and multimodal evaluation of the case, for a proper reconstruction of the facts. Indeed, the death, which was initially assumed to be accidental, was finally deemed as a suicide on the basis of the video recording, which showed an intentional and sudden rush of the victim to the middle of the roadway. ![]() The analysis of a video recorded from a Dash Cam retrieved inside the vehicle during the death scene investigation (DSI) was crucial in the reconstruction of the manner of death. Dash Cams are digital video recorders which can be located inside a vehicle and continuously record the view through the windscreen, thus providing objective evidence. Here we present the case of a traffic crash in which a pedestrian was hit by an articulated lorry. The reconstruction of dynamic of traffic injuries remains a challenge in forensic pathology and is often based on circumstantial data. ![]() ![]() ![]() However, there’s nothing to worry about since you can spend this time in hanging out in the pool bar area. ![]() You may be warned about the so-called “death ray” at the Vdara pool, which is an exaggerated term for a period of time when the sun is strongly reflected off the nearby glass hotel towers onto the pool area and gets a little too hot. Any guest or paying non-guests above 14 can use the main pool at the Vdara. The Vdara pool is usually open from 9 AM to 5 PM, seven days a week. You also can pay for a poolside cabana if you really want to up your experience. You can reserve sunbeds for a fee, but they are usually free for hotel guests. There are several poolside amenities available that provide entertainment, drinks, and food. Vdara offers a great pool complex with a main pool, three semi-private pools, and a hot tub. You can use the in-house pool, or you can go and use the pool in a nearby hotel. What Pools Can Vdara Guests Use?Įven though Bellagio is off-limits, you still have plenty of pool options as a Vdara guest. The Bellagio makes sure this exclusive experience lives up to your expectations. You can also hire cabanas or go to the numerous poolside bars or cafes. Sunbeds or chaise lounges are usually free, but you can also reserve one for a small charge. The Bellagio pools offer plenty of poolside services that you can enjoy once you’re in there. Consequently, you’ll need to book a room (TripAdvisor) at the Bellagio next time you visit Vegas in order to be able to access the pool. While other hotels may charge for entrance at the pool, Bellagio prefers keeping the exclusivity by only allowing guests. This happens mainly because hotels want to keep guests entertained privately in their own facilities.Įven hotels with shared ownership or management are still competing with one another, so they make sure to offer guests exclusive amenities. Non-guests have no way of using these amenities, even if they offer to pay. Why Doesn’t Bellagio Allow Non-Guest Entry to the Pools?īellagio, like many other hotels in Vegas, only allows specific amenities to be accessed by guests of the hotel. This can happen because the Vdara, unlike the Bellagio, allows non-guests to enter some pools for a small fee. As a Vdara guest, you would not be allowed to enter in this case.Įven though Vdara and Bellagio don’t share any amenities, including pool access, a Bellagio guest can still enter the pool at Vdara. At the pool entrance, you may be able to swipe your hotel card to enter, or sometimes a hotel employee will check if you have proof of being a Bellagio guest. ![]() The Bellagio pool is not open to non-guests, meaning that only people with a room key can enter. However, a Bellagio guest does have access to the pool at Vdara. ![]() As a result, you won’t be able to use the Bellagio pool as a Vdara guest, even though they are considered sister properties. The Vdara and the Bellagio don’t share amenities. While both of these resorts offer a variety of amenities, they don’t make them available for guests of other hotels.

It has become something of a cliche to claim that a game is ahead of its time, but that is definitely the case with Relic Entertainment's Homeworld. Wing Commander series creator Chris Roberts has since expanded into crowd-funded behemoth Star Citizen, and although the title has suffered from controversy and an awkwardly slow development cycle, many are still holding strong to the game, hoping for another chance to feel that same sense of discovery that games such as Wing Commander: Privateer offered. Meanwhile, the player's role as a freelancer meant that wide number of jobs were there for the taking. Unlike some of the other titles in the series, Privateer offered players an open-ended world to explore, and users were even able to ignore the entirety of the game's central plot if they so chose. ![]() However, when it comes to player freedom, 1993's Wing Commander: Privateer is still seen as the best of the bunch.

Still running strong since its release in 2003, the title gives users a huge amount of choice in how to play the game, be it in the form of legitimate in-game careers as traders or miners, or taking a more 'unconventional' route as a space pirate. The popular massively multiplayer online game has been giving would-be space captains some of the largest scope in gaming for years. PC gamers are unlikely to need any introduction to EVE Online. Here's our pick of some of the best space exploration games. Indeed, from the very early era of gaming, players have been simulating that feeling of heading out into the stars searching for something new. However, No Man's Sky is far from the only game that has promised users the tantalizing prospect of space exploration. Promising a procedurally generated galaxy to explore, the title is seemingly putting discovery and adventure as its top selling points. The release of No Man's Sky is nearly upon us, and gamers anticipating the title are expecting much from the game.
