CONTROL UNIT FOR SETTING A DEVICE FOR THE ADAPTIVE REDUCTION OF CRASH ENERGY FOR A VEHICLE, DEVICE FOR THE ADAPTIVE REDUCTION OF CRASH ENERGY FOR A VEHICLE AND METHOD FOR SETTING A DEVICE FOR THE ADAPTIVE REDUCTION OF CRASH ENERGY FOR A VEHICLE

摘要

A control unit for setting a device for the adaptive reduction of crash energy for a vehicle includes a first interface which provides a first signal characterizing an imminent or a beginning crash process, a computing element which, as a function of the first signal, generates a first control signal for setting the deformation behavior of at least one deformation element of the device for the adaptive reduction in the crash energy, and a second interface which provides a second signal characterizing at least one passenger parameter that changes as a function of the crash process. The computing element generates at least one second control signal as a function of the second signal for setting the deformation behavior during the crash process.
