Abstract

Today’s automotive passenger restraint systems see a major change from passive safety systems towards active safety systems. The development of passive safety systems is focused on an improved performance of the restraint devices while the need for the protection of all road traffic participants is increasing. This requires new generations of sensors like occupant detection sensors and pre crash sensors, placed on dedicated positions of the vehicle to merge passive safety and active safety.
