Vision Zero is about preventing crashes. But when a collision becomes unavoidable, every millisecond counts. Our airbag control units (ACU) are the last line of defense – and the first to act when a crash is imminent. Receiving the crash signals from the satellite sensors, they analyze crash severity, occupant position or seat configuration in real time, and deploy airbags and seat belt tensioners with precisely calibrated force – all within milliseconds. However, protection doesn't start at the moment of impact. Our ACU portfolio integrates precrash sensors and pedestrian protection systems: active engine hoods lift in case of a pedestrian collision to reduce injury severity. Occupant monitoring ensures that restraint systems work with – not against – the people inside. And multi-stage airbags adapt deployment to the specific crash scenario. From ACU compact for emerging markets to ACU premium with integrated sensor fusion and adaptive deployment, our modular SAFE platform enables flexible, scalable passive safety solutions across all vehicle segments. Because Vision Zero means protecting everyone – even when prevention fails. It means minimizing injury severity, saving lives, and ensuring that the most vulnerable – occupants and pedestrians alike – have the best possible protection. This is passive safety that thinks ahead. This is how we change the story of road safety.
