摘要

A system for protecting one or more occupants in a vehicle includes a seat posture sensor configured to detect seat posture data, a collision detector configured to detect collision data of the vehicle, and a controller. The controller is configured to receive the collision data from the collision detector, determine a collision generation direction, and selectively deploy one or more airbags provided around the one or more occupants according to the collision generation direction and the seat posture data detected by the seat posture sensor.

1. A system for protecting one or more occupants in a vehicle, comprising:
a seat posture sensor configured to detect seat posture data; a collision detector configured to detect collision data of the vehicle; a controller configured to receive the collision data from the collision detector, determine a collision generation direction, and selectively deploy one or more airbags provided around the one or more occupants according to the collision generation direction and the seat posture data detected by the seat posture sensor, and an occupant detection sensor configured to detect whether or not two or more seats are occupied, wherein the controller is configured to selectively deploy, upon determining that a side collision of the vehicle occurs, a side center airbag according to the seat posture data and whether or not two or more seats are occupied, and wherein the controller is configured to deploy, upon determining that the side collision occurs, the side center airbag when two or more seats are occupied and a difference between angles of two seat backs of the two or more occupied seats is within a reference angle range.
