 ABOUT IOT SENSOR

• Sensors are used for sensing things and devices etc.

• A device that provides a usable output in response to a specified measurement.
• The sensor attains a physical parameter and converts it into a signal suitable for
processing (e.g. electrical, mechanical, optical) the characteristics of any device or
material to detect the presence of a particular physical quantity.
• The output of the sensor is a signal which is converted to a human-readable form
like changes in characteristics, changes in resistance, capacitance, impedance etc.
• sensor is a signal which is converted to a human-readable form like changes in
characteristics, changes in resistance, capacitance, impedance etc.

 AIRBAG SENSOR
• Crash sensors that control deployment of the side airbags are usually mounted
inside each of the front doors.
• The sensors relay signals to the airbag control unit, which analyzes the data and
can orchestrate safety features like seat belt lock, automatic door locks, as well
as airbag deployment. Two types of airbag sensors used in cars are electrical and
mechanical. Electrical sensors vary in design.
• The sensors trigger the airbag control unit. The airbag control unit contains both
the airbag and inflator assembly. The airbag control is vital to how airbags work
as it is what commands the airbags to deploy once the sensor detects enough
force. 
WORKING OF AIRBAG SENSOR WHEN IMPACT
OCCURS
ANIMATED VEDIO OF AIRBAG SYSTEM
The Advantages of Airbags
• The airbag can evenly distribute the impact force on the
head and chest, prevent the fragile passenger body from
directly colliding with the car body, and greatly reduce the
possibility of injury.
• Airbags can indeed effectively protect passengers when
they are subjected to a frontal impact. Even if the seat belts
are not fastened, the anti-collision airbags are still sufficient
to effectively reduce injuries.
• When a car equipped with airbags has a frontal collision, it
can reduce the degree of passenger injury by up to 64%,
and even 80% of the passengers are not wearing seat belts!
• As for collisions from the side and rear seats, it still depends
on the function of the seat belt. In addition, the volume when
the airbag bursts is only about 130 decibels, which is within
the tolerable range of the human body.
• 78% of the gas in the airbag is nitrogen, which is very
stable and non-toxic, and harmless to the human body.
The Disadvantages of Airbags
• Airbags also have their unsafe side. If a car is traveling at a
speed of 60km per hour, a sudden impact will stop the
vehicle within 0.2 seconds, and the airbag will pop up at a
speed of about 300km/h, and the resulting impact force is
about 180 kg. It is difficult to bear the weaker parts of the
human body such as the head and neck. Therefore, if the
angle and strength of the airbag ejection are slightly wrong,
it may cause a "tragedy".
• The airbag may be opened at very low vehicle speeds.
When a car is running at a very low speed and a collision
accident occurs, the occupants and the driver can wear
seat belts, and there is no need for airbags to deploy for
protection
• When the passenger deviates from the seat or there is no
one on the seat or the child is on the seat, the activation of
the airbag system will not only fail to protect it, but may also
cause a certain amount of injury to the occupant.
