Safety System Sensors & Controls

Safety System Sensors & Controls provide critical input to a vehicle’s active and passive safety features. These components—including wheel speed sensors, impact sensors, yaw rate sensors, and control modules—are distributed throughout the chassis, body, and powertrain. They monitor vehicle dynamics, detect collisions, and determine occupant restraint system deployment. Technical features include piezoelectric, capacitive, and Hall-effect technologies for accurate signal generation, alongside redundant circuit designs and diagnostic capabilities. Control modules utilize data from these sensors to execute functions like ABS, ESC, airbag deployment, and pre-tensioning systems. Calibration and precise positioning are critical for optimal system performance.
