- An all-mechanical self-contained airbag has been developed that avoids the complexities of electrical systems and thus is less expensive and easier to install. The system, based on conventional military fuzing technology, evolved from computer math models that found a sensor response curve which would provide timely airbag deployment while detecting the crash pulse outside the crush zone.
