TRW develops a new generation of adaptive front airbags

According to PR News, Tianhe, a supplier of automotive safety systems, has developed a new generation of adaptive front airbags that can automatically adjust based on the size of the occupants and other variables that may be generated in the event of a car accident. Airbag pressure and volume size.

Norbert Kagerer, VP of ergonomics of the TRW Group, said that TRW's new generation of adaptive airbags can not only accommodate the size of the occupants, but also depend on the speed and impact of the crash, the position of the occupants, and whether the occupants are Seat belts and many other variable factors automatically adjust to protect the safety of the occupants. Tianhe expects to start production of this adaptive airbag in 2013.

TRW has developed and produced an airbag automatic exhaust system. When the occupant is too close to the airbag, the built-in air vent of the airbag can automatically discharge the flexibility of some gas-adjusting airbags.

TRW is currently considering the placement of a sensor inside the airbag to determine the occupant's volume and other variables, providing the occupant with a tailored volume and shape when the airbag deploys.
