 World's First Mechanical Model of an Average Female ATD - The Seat Evaluation Tools SET 50F and 50MThe Seat Evaluation Tools (SETs) are prototype concept models of the human, made specifically for evaluation of the protective performance of vehicle seats in the event of a low severity rear impact, up to 24 km/h. Two physical prototypes, SET v0.1 50F and 50M, have been developed.

In addition to obstacles, lights, cameras and lots of different sensors, crash test dummies are an essential actor in car safety testing. And the fact that crash tests are becoming more and more stringent and demanding is evidenced, among other things, by the fact that the number of types of crash dummies used by koda is on the rise. While only a few types of dummies were previously required, the Czech carmaker now uses at least twelve. There are eight types of adult passenger dummies alone. And then there are child dummies, representing children aged 1.5, 3, 6 and 10.
The United States Government Accountability Office (GAO) published the report "
The improved human models have increased accuracy in the geometry and properties of some key body parts - pelvis, abdominal organs, spine discs, cortical bones, vertebrae and ribs. You can also sit the occupant in reclined posture, or reproduce how the human changes posture and braces muscles when manoeuvring the car in an emergency situation, or when the car's safety systems such as emergency braking or steering control kick in. The THUMS' new capabilities level up further the precision of crash simulations, which is key to developing safety systems that can protect vehicle occupants even better.
Applus+ IDIADA has developed a validated set of procedures to betterunderstand pre-crash occupant behaviour in order to assess the impact of ADAS functionalities on occupant protection. This new methodology combines pre-crash testing, on both driving simulator and proving ground, and Human Body Model (HBM) simulations.
The World Health Organization (WHO), the FIA Foundation and other partners have launched an 
Euro NCAP has published several updated protocols. The changes reflect in particular the new 2023 requirements of the Euro NCAP program. The current versions are available via 
Many advanced technologies can reduce the number of lives lost on U.S. roads, but full or partial automation is not one of them, David Harkey, president of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, said in a virtual Capitol Hill briefing March 7th, 2023.
The research institute that is now known as the Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute (VTI) was founded 100 years ago when the Royal Swedish Automobile Club (KAK) started the National Road Institute. Technical highway research continues to be an important area of focus, even though many other transport related disciplines have been added to VTI's research portfolio since then.
MESSRING GmbH establishes MESSRING, Inc. to strengthen its foothold in North America. As a wholly owned subsidiary, headquartered in Ann Arbor, Michigan, all activities in the United States and Canada will be coordinated and supported from the new location. The company's presence is intended to both locally serve its existing customers while attracting new customers.
2022 was a very positive year for SAFER; all-time high in the number of projects in the portfolio, concluded knowledge building activities and academic publications! 
Tom Dingus, the Newport News Shipbuilding Professor of Biomedical Engineering and Mechanics, will be honored with the U.S. Government Award for Safety Engineering Excellence at the 27th Enhanced Safety of Vehicles conference this spring in Yokohama, Japan. Dingus' transportation safety research has covered a broad spectrum of topics including automated and connected vehicles, driver distraction and attention, the safety and usability of advanced in-vehicle devices, crash avoidance countermeasures, and fatigue. He has been awarded more than $150 million USD in research funding and authored more than 300 publications.
