In America around 30% of all fatal car collisions are a result of side collisions. Furthermore, in Europe between 28% to 38% of all side collisions results in serious injury or death. There are existing protection systems to minimize the risk of injury. Most commonly a combination airbag system or a curtain system is used to protect the occupants in the event of a side collision. A combination bag deploys forwards from the back-rest to protect the occupants thorax and pelvis. For head protection this system implements an extension from the seat mounted bag which deploys upwards towards the head area. The drawback of this system is that the area covered by the airbag is limited. Curtain solutions commonly work in tandem with a seat mounted t...
