The article presents the fulfilment of a partial goal of the research project focused on developing and constructing a biofidelic surrogate of the human body to improve the forensic reconstruction of road traffic accidents. It aims to describe the methods and results of acquiring external geometry of segments of crash test dummy Hybrid III. To create a precise spatial representation of dummy segments, we applied 3D laser scanning using the handheld 3D scanner VIUscan Handyscan 3D. The workflow, used material and application of software support are closely described in the methodical part of the article. The results present 3D models of significant material for the continuous fulfilment of project goals. In the follow-up activities, we will use dummy external geometry data, particularly to develop molds for casting segments of new-generation synthetic human body surrogates.
