[Motorcycle] Specializing in public road use! An airbag vest for motorcycles that fully deploys in about 0.049 seconds

The safety equipment for motorcycles running on public roads needs to be considered with the different environment compared to circuits. Therefore, we want to check the airbag vest "T-SABE," specialized for public road use. It pursues safety that reflects actual accident environments and is a garment thoroughly designed as a practical measure.

A safety design optimized for "public roads" rather than the circuit!

Previous airbag gear was mainly centered around those designed for circuit driving. However, a different approach is necessary for public road driving. Therefore, "T-SABE" focuses on more complex and unpredictable public road environments such as city streets and winding suburban roads.

During the approximately 30-month development period, extensive simulations and real-car crash tests were conducted, and a unique algorithm was developed based on traffic psychology and actual accident data. The safety equipment has been elevated to function more realistically against risks such as falls and collisions that can occur on a daily basis.

The biggest feature is that the airbag fully deploys in just about 0.049 seconds from detection. It protects the chest and back, forming an air layer before the impact reaches the rider. During deployment, an air cushion with a thickness of about 75 to 80 mm is created, ensuring the time and distance for shock absorption and dispersion compared to conventional hard protectors (about 15 to 20 mm). This is expected to reduce damage to the rider.

Equipped with high-precision sensors developed by analyzing accident patterns unique to public roads, it accurately distinguishes between minor vibrations such as tip-overs and accidents, and is designed to operate reliably only in necessary situations.

The functionality is further expanded through integration with the dedicated app "T-SABE CONNECT." It allows for checking battery levels, turning the power ON/OFF, and automatic emergency contact in case of a fall (with location information). In the event of an accident, it automatically notifies registered contacts, providing peace of mind even when touring alone.

While being highly functional, the design anticipated for everyday use is also noteworthy. In addition to a pattern design that does not hinder movements while riding, the electronic unit is detachable. The best body can be hand-washed, allowing it to be kept clean. Although touring comes with risks, it seems possible to enjoy it while prioritizing safety.
