Christophe Bastien

Associate Professor Coventry University

Main Conference Day 2 : Seat Design for a Circular Economy, AV Seats and Crash Performance, Occupant Comfort & Future Interiors.

9:40 AM AV SEATS & CRASH SIMULATION/TESTING

Autonomous driving will require automotive companies to carry out more simulations than ever before. 80% of AV testing is done through simulation; having a robust, reliable simulation program is place is crucial to making sure all safety components like airbags and seat belts perform at optimum levels.


Join a distinguished seating simulation expert and he/she share a video demonstration on:


  • How crash simulation and testing was carried out to check and safeguard safety of AV seats.
  • How seatbelts and airbags were integrated to optimise occupant safety, especially when non-front facing/in out-of normal positions.
  • How occupant position sensing is used to detect the exact location of an out-of-position occupant.
