SensorLeg
SensorLeg is a biofidelic impactor for use in testing and developing contact sensor technology employed in active safety pedestrian systems. It enables vehicle and component developers to accurately test and evaluate new pop-up bonnet systems which are designed to reduce head injury in the event of a pedestrian impact. The impactor is the most human-like leg available and is modelled on a 50th percentile male, simulating human muscle shape, response and fracture. |

Develop and test your contact sensor technology active-safety pedestrian protection systems with TRL's leg impactor.
What is SensorLeg™ ?
SensorLeg is a new biofidelic impactor for use in testing and developing contact sensor technology employed in active safety pedestrian systems. It enables vehicle and component developers to accurately test and evaluate new active safety pedestrian systems (e.g. pop-up bonnets) which are designed to reduce head injury in the event of a pedestrian impact. The impactor is the most human-like leg available and is modelled on a 50th percentile male, simulating human muscle shape, flesh density and bone fracture.
Why use SensorLeg?
- SensorLeg is designed to replicate a vehicle impact with a pedestrian in order to ensure the vehicle active safety system deploys, thus reducing the risk of injury to the pedestrian.
- SensorLeg provides vehicle manufacturers, test houses and technology developers uniformity for testing active safety pedestrian systems.
- SensorLeg can be used as a development tool as well as accurately testing the performance of existing systems.
- SensorLeg will enable developers of active safety systems to accurately set bumper threshold levels to provide deployment when required. Conversely, the system needs to differentiate between pedestrians and other objects, so that unwarranted deployments do not occur.
