Various systems and methods for implementing an enhanced occupant collision safety system in a vehicle are described herein. A system for controlling deployment of vehicle safety mechanisms of a host vehicle, includes a sensor array interface to receive acceleration data from an impact sensor; an image processor to receive events from an event camera, the event camera configured to monitor a scene of an interior of the host vehicle that includes an occupant; and an occupant safety system controller to: cluster the events to discriminate between events associated with a background of the scene and events associated with a body part of the occupant; detect a collision based on the acceleration data; verify the collision based on the events associated with the background of the scene; and in response to verifying the collision, cause a collision safety mechanism of the host vehicle to deploy.
