Our Sensor Highlights
Acceleration Satellite gSAT
The intelligent crash sensors are the perfect complement to the airbag control unit in a crash.
Damage or no damage? The measurement principle of the existing pedestrian protection system can be applied to the high-voltage battery. This allows to sense the type of impact and to warn the driver accordingly. The active system is robust enough to prevent unnecessary false alarms.
Refinement of the proven pressure-based Pedestrian Protection System (PPS pSAT) also permits analysis of a front-end crash for improved front crash detection.
