Occupant Protection System Testing with 3000 FPS High-Speed Camera

Vehicle Safety Inspection with High-Speed Cameras

Vehicle safety testing requires accurate observation of occupant movement during crash events. Many critical events occur within milliseconds, making them impossible to analyze with the naked eye or conventional cameras.

SinceVision high-speed cameras help automotive engineers and researchers capture, analyze, and understand occupant behavior during collision testing. By recording high-speed events with exceptional temporal and spatial resolution, these cameras provide valuable data for vehicle safety development and validation.

Challenges in Occupant Protection System Testing

Occupant protection systems, including airbags, seatbelts, and restraint mechanisms, must perform correctly during a collision to minimize injury risk.

During crash testing, engineers need to:

• Track occupant movement throughout the impact event

• Analyze head, neck, torso, and limb trajectories

• Evaluate airbag deployment timing

• Verify seatbelt performance

• Measure interactions between occupants and vehicle structures

Because these events occur in milliseconds, traditional imaging systems often fail to capture the required level of detail.

SinceVision Solution: SH6-504

SinceVision high-speed cameras provide high-frame-rate recording to capture the complete occupant movement sequence during crash tests and safety validation procedures. SH6-504 high-speed camera combines high resolution and high frame rates, making it suitable for automotive crash testing and vehicle safety research.

Key Benefits

• High-speed recording up to 3000 fps at 2560 × 2016 resolution 

• Complete capture of occupant movement trajectories during collisions

• Multi-angle synchronized imaging for 3D motion analysis

• High-resolution image output for detailed observation

• Clear visualization of head, torso, arm, and leg positions

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet interface for fast data transfer and analysis

The recorded image data allows engineers to accurately evaluate occupant protection system performance and improve vehicle safety design.
