Occupant Detection and Sensing for Smarter Air Bag Systems
AUTHOR(S): Randy Frank
Occupant Detection and Sensing for Smarter Air Bag Systems chronicles the progress made towards improving occupant safety in vehicles. Compiled by the leaders in occupant protection and the "who's who" of global industry, this book features a collection of 26 technical papers that focus on occupant detection and sensing for discriminating between different types of occupants, their positions, and the presence or absence of passengers.
Sections include:
Recognizing the Problem
Research
Simulation, Modeling & Testing
Sensing Technologies
Systems & Integration
Beyond Advanced Air Bags
While considerable overlap occurs between sections, the six classifications provide a basis to account for the requirements to improve occupant safety in vehicles. The technical papers within each section are arranged in chronological order to present the progress that has occurred. Frequently, the earlier papers provide an in-depth background that is missing on more recent papers, especially useful for those just getting involved in occupant sensing, while other historical papers provide insight to improvements in analyzing the problem and steps towards the manufacturable solutions that are appearing today.
