%X Among automobile collisions, side impacts are among the most serious. By using a pre-crash sensing system researched under the auspices of the Advanced Protection Systems (APROSYS) Sub-Project 6, however, valuable active technology deployment time can be gained by assessing likely side-impact severity before its occurrence. The authors focus on the pre-crash sensing system, including its radar network, stereo video system, fusion system, decision module, and actuator system; as well as the side-impact protection system, including its SMA reversible actuator and structural door-seat coupling.<p />
