An Occupant Sensing System Using Sensor Fusion for Smart Airbag
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose an occupant sensing system using the sensor fusion composing of PIR (pyroelectric infrared) sensor, USD (ultrasonic distance) sensor and IRD (infrared distance) sensor for the smart airbag. These sensors are used to detect the position and body classification of occupants. By mounting these sensors within vehicles jig, the proposed system is experimentally evaluated in viewpoint of the occupant detection performance. The experimental results show that the proposed system can apply to the future smart airbag system.

In this paper, we proposed an occupant detection system using single video camera and a distance sensor for an advanced airbag deployment. We detected occupant face using skin color and motion information in real time. The proposed method acquired the color and size of the occupant face using single video camera and calculated the distance information between the occupant and airbag using a dis...

Robust detection of vehicle occupant posture is necessary for intelligent airbag deployment. This paper presents a vision-based method of estimating the size, posture and pose of the occupant. Utilizing raw reflectance and stereo disparity images, this algorithm presents a mixed-mode approach to finding occupant features. Extensive experiments show the robustness of this mixed-mode method in id...
