4activeOD-newborn
solutions for Child Presence Detection (CPD)

4activeSystems, in close co-operation with Euro NCAP, is striving to protect and safeguard newborns inside a car. Extreme temperatures inside the car, distracted or stressed caregivers; a combination that could lead to a very unfortunate end. To prevent scenarios of babies being left behind in cars, we have started developing the OD-Newborn dummy. It simulates life-like and realistic head-, leg-, and arm movements as well as the adjustable respiration of a newborn. Highly realistic-, skin-like material will provide you with an extremely accurate Radar feedback for commonly used frequencies for in-cabin Radar. The goal is to train the interior monitoring system of a car to recognize these kinds of situations and sound some kind of alarm.

Our OD-Newborn can simulate 4 fundamental movement patterns like waking up, light sleep, deep sleep and being fully awake. On top of that, you can trigger individual movement patterns yourself. This dummy will be vital for future.

As part of the Child Presence Detection (CPD) Consortium Project, 4activeSystems contributes to the development of globally harmonized child dummies that simulate the presence of children of various ages. These dummies are essential for evaluating and verifying systems designed to detect children left behind in vehicles, helping to prevent tragic outcomes due to heatstroke or prolonged exposure.
