The reaction of the human body in an unforeseen dangerous situation can be examined with virtual human models. This can protect people better.

Not only the external body shape, but also bones, muscles, tendons, internal organs and soft tissue are imaged directly. Motivated by the requirements of the automotive industry, the development of these human models has now progressed so far that they can contribute to the improvement and further development of safety measures.

In the defense area, the previously empirically dominated design and testing of personal protective equipment can also be significantly supported using such human models.
