Design considerations of the passenger airbag system.

This airbag design study analyses the test results to find ways to obtain an effective protection capability of the airbag while reducing its impact on the passenger during deployment. The tests were conducted by taking into consideration the parameters specific to the passnger seat. These include: (1) wide range of age; (2) physical size and (3) weight of passengers, and (4) seating conditions such as: position, direction and posture.
