Vision based systems for "smart" airbag systems aim to give precise information about occupant pose and location. This information can be used to make intelligent airbag deployment decisions. This paper reviews both a stereo-based and long wave infrared-based system for "smart" airbag deployment. The algorithms are systematically evaluated through extensive real-time occupant tests. Data for both algorithms is simultaneously collected and evaluated for viability in an intelligent airbag system. Results of these experimental trials show the feasibility of each video based occupant position analysis system. Advantages and drawbacks of each method are discussed and potential solutions are suggested.
