Abstract
Most of the injuries that happen in an automobile accident happen due to the impact of the passengers with the front dashboard and steering wheel. This is the case in head- on or bumper to bumper crashes. The driver will get struck in the chest are by the steering wheel causing grievous internal injuries. These injuries are fatal in most cases. To prevent such fatal injuries we have come up with an innovative design. The design consists of a mechanism that will sense the impact and then automatically move the seat so that the driver is protected from the crash. In this project we shall design a seating system that will be fitted with a kinematic mechanism that will change the seating position automatically when the sensors get activated. The sensors are proximity sensors that monitor the distance of the front bumper. In a crash the bumper is the first impact object. When this bumper is pushed back the proximity sensors will send a signal to the kinematic mechanism. The sensor triggers the mechanism which moves the seat so that the occupants are saved from injury.
