The report discusses the means, effectiveness, and estimated costs of carrying out anticipatory sensing of automobile collisions. Actuation of passive restraint systems requires only a small advance warning to extend the protection of such devices to impact speeds of 30 to 60 MPH -- a range encompassing a large number of fatal and severe-injury accidents. Radar is the most promising crash sensing technique. Design, construction, and extensive test of prototype systems, accompanied by studies of component cost and reliability, show that an OEM price of $20 per unit should be attainable for systems exhibiting high electronic reliability.
