  • Pedestrian protection system for a vehicle
    Patent number: 9650013
    Abstract: A pedestrian protection system for a vehicle, having at least one impact-detecting sensor and a deformable element that are arranged between a cross-member and a bumper cover of the vehicle, and a control unit that analyzes the signals of the at least one sensor. In order to reduce the amount of space required, the deformable element is designed as a deformable member that it has a cavity in which the at least one sensor is arranged and detects changes in an electromagnetic field in the cavity.

  • Belt buckle for a motor vehicle
    Patent number: 8902057
    Abstract: A belt buckle for a motor vehicle is provided wherein, through the use of the belt buckle, a tongue of a seat belt is mechanically receivable and, through the use of a switch, an insertion status of the tongue is detectable. A device is assigned to the switch through the use of which the switch position of the switch is wirelessly communicable to a receiver circuit.
