KINOTEX® can deliver more essential crash information than other crush zone sensors.

The KINOTEX® Crush Zone Intrusion Sensor (CZI) is a technological advance in crash sensing, providing essential crash severity information early in an event, increasing the effectiveness of automotive occupant protection systems.

The sensor can resolve the intrusion extent, velocity and location on a sub-millisecond time scale. The information can be used to improve advanced air bag firing decisions.

CZI sensors are complementary to other types of crash sensor.
