That video promo has been out there for quite a while. To date I can't see that they've published any results. In fact, if you look at their study prospectus, there's not even a schedule.

Also, their study is narrowly limited to only impacts on part 25 aircraft (regional carrier sized passenger and business). This excludes the many light civilian fixed wing aircraft, helicopters, Agricultural, and military tactical aircraft flying at low altitude.

"DELIVERABLES: (Performed by WSU-NIAR, OSU, Montana, Mississippi and UAH)
• Airframe structural damage evaluation due to mid-air collision between a UAS and a Narrow Body and Business Jet Aircraft [emphasis added]."
