MIRA has developed the BELTFIT program for predicting whether a proposed seat belt layout will suit all wearers.BELTFIT assesses any combination of anchorage locations, seat position, seat angles and stalk length. The program predicts the belt paths on selected wearers and checks them for comfort and safety.European manufacturers are already using BELTFIT to improve the belt layouts on their new vehicles. Further development of the program is in hand.
