Second generation belt tension sensor

Improved performance in occupant detection.

As a critical component in an automotive airbag system, this sensor detects loading force factors that prevent deployment of an airbag in an empty passenger seat. Its proportional analog output signal also allows the system to sense the presence of children and smaller adults, preventing potential airbag-related injuries.

The second generation design of this device offers a wider operating range for greater sensitivity, along with higher sensor accuracy and a smaller size that simplifies sensor integration into existing seat belt assemblies.

This component draws upon D&R’s leadership in sensor technology, sophisticated manufacturing capability and experience meeting the elevated quality standards required for critical automotive safety systems. D&R Technology offers this insight and capability to a variety of leading industry customers.
