MSN report SUZUKI MOTORCYCLE CRASH DETECTION SYSTEM PATENT PHOROA
Not only can the system send out an emergency signal, but it can also detect the severity of an accident.
SOS or emergency signal systems are not new in the industry with some brands like BMW fielding their very own system into its bikes. Even some aftermarket marques are throwing their hats in the ring to save lives.Suzuki, meanwhile, is working on its very own system that ties in with the ECU and inertial sensors to detect and assess a crash. On top of that, the patent also details the mechanism of injury imparted on the rider by the crash via a pair of sensors that integrate into the rider’s body. The sensors will determine whether the rider’s on his feet or on the ground and the position of his or her body post-accident. If the rider’s up and about after the crash or standing up, then the system won’t flag the accident as severe, though a rider lying down on the ground is a red flag that carries more risk, which the system can detect.
