Andre Doria, Ph.D.

ACTAR-accredited crash reconstructionist Dr. Andre Doria is the co-founder and CTO of Compass Kinetics—a motorcycle forensic consulting firm based in Southern California. Motivated by the abundance of multimedia evidence captured by stationary cameras and moving video cameras in his motorcycle case work, Dr. Doria has developed novel image and acoustic based methods for evaluating video evidence. Video analysis and 3D capture are core to his advanced photogrammetric methods that apply entertainment industry techniques to the forensic setting. He utilizes RTK-GNSS, UAVs, terrestrial laser scanners, and structured-light handheld scanners to document evidence and create visually compelling court demonstratives.
