A safety seat system and method for delivering a compression load to a passenger during a frontal deceleration event is disclosed. The system may include a seat frame, a seat back, and an impulse generator coupled to the seat back configured to provide a compression load onto a spine of a sitting passenger during a forward deceleration event. The system further includes a controller configured to receive a forward deceleration signal from the inertial sensor and activate the impulse generator based on the forward deceleration signal. The impulse generator may generate the compression load via an airbag, mechanically stored energy, a solenoid switch, or via a rotating cam assembly.
