Airbag system weight sensor

An occupant weight sensor from CTS Corp. is intended for use in intelligent airbag control systems. Multiple sensors incorporated within the seat structure produce linear signal outputs that represent both the passenger's weight and physical position on the seat. Airbag controllers use the sensor outputs to establish a sequence of airbag activation events.
