A collision damage reduction system comprises a plurality of flowable and deformable substances 22 held in sealed containers 23 each of which also contains a pressure release valve 32 and a pressure sensor. The system may also include a number of hard plates10 and a means 3, (44, fig 3a) to prevent the system moving relative to the colliding object 1. In use the deformable substance is forced out of the container through the pressure release valve, absorbing the energy of the collision. A computer system 12 and a plurality of object sensors (15, fig 3b) measure the speed and distance of the colliding object and set the pressure valve. The system may also include pistons (20, fig 4) which are held in the container and force air out through the pressure release valve. The system may be used in landing areas for VTOL aircraft, on motor vehicles or on protective clothing.
