Autoliv's ACR8: Revolutionizing Seatbelt Safety with Active Positioning and Haptic Alerts
Autoliv, a leading automotive safety supplier, unveils the ACR8, an innovative electromechanical seatbelt pretensioner that enhances occupant protection and driver awareness.
The ACR8, not requiring separate NCAP self-certification, seamlessly integrates into various car seats with minimal installation depth. It actively reduces belt slack upon buckling, ensuring a snug fit against the occupant.
In critical driving situations, the seat belt can vibrate, alerting the driver and providing extra reaction time. The system shifts occupants into a more optimal seating position prior to potential collisions, working in tandem with the airbag for enhanced protection. The seat belt initially restrains the upper body and then releases it towards the airbag. The ACR8 actively enhances occupant position in the event of an unavoidable accident, using the vehicle's sensors and interacting with emergency braking assist input for accurate belt activation. It can also serve as a haptic signal transmitter, warning or alerting the occupant to certain situations.
Autoliv's ACR8 electromechanical seatbelt pretensioner significantly improves occupant safety and driver awareness. By actively adjusting seating position, reducing belt slack, and providing haptic warnings, the ACR8 enhances the overall protective system of the vehicle.
