Would like to improve their car seats when they are already doing a great job with the tasks assigned to them? But the engineers of the company BeBop Sensors strongly disagree with the current state of things. That is why in their labs they have developed a system through which car seat will be able to accurately determine: whether it is sitting on an adult, child or simply stands the shopping bag from the supermarket.
Employees BeBop Sensors believe that currently existing car seats pretty stupid. To make them smarter, was developed by the OCS system (Occupant Classification System), which is a case thickness of just 1 mm, is woven from hundreds of different sensors. Thanks to this system, the chair will know exactly the size of the passenger, his weight and will be able to track any movement on the surface of the case. The sensor will immediately know if you put it on the car seat or bag, as the object will be static.
At the time of the accident thanks to the OCS system the car’s computer will be able to accurately position the airbag, according to the size, weight and position of the passenger that will increase the safety of driving on transport. At the moment, the company BeBop Sensors in active talks with major car manufacturers, discussing the most interesting applications of his invention.
