Computational human body models are widely used for automotive crash-safety research and design and as such have significantly contributed to a reduction of traffic injuries and fatalities. Currently crash simulations are mainly performed using models based on crash-dummies. However crash dummies differ significantly from the real human body and moreover crash dummies are only available for a l...

A GRABS B TO USE as a shield; A forces B to stand in front of him, and compels him to walk wherever A wishes. A then hunts C in order to murder the latter by shooting him. C also has a gun.

In order to solve this safety problem I am investigating possibilities to detect humans which are close to the propeller and make a system perform a certain action to prevent injury. The reason for this literature review is to assess if there are any human body detection methods avai...
