Thousands of people die every year in car accidents. Current restraint systems such as conventional seatbelts and airbags are designed to accommodate several occupant/crash scenarios and lack the capability of varying their output during the impact event. This paper introduces and demonstrates the benefits of real time control of a novel adaptive restraint system. Through applying intelligent control...

In every vehicle collision, the work-energy principle must be satisfied, i.e., the work done in stopping the driver must be equal to the driver's kinetic energy. Existing restraint systems such as airbags and seatbelts are designed to minimize injuries by smoothly absorbing the kinetic energy of the occupant during a crash event. Advanced systems are being developed to tailor their level of restraining...
