The SmartCrash digital measuring system introduced by Kistler in 2004 is used to measure forces in up to three directions during vehicle crash testing. The new variant of SmartCrash, with analog signal output, is compatible with existing data acquisition systems and permits simple cost-effective exchanges with force elements from earlier generations.
Various bus designs for cross connecting the digital SmartCrash elements in a barrier, as well as compatibility with standard vehicle crash control and analysis programs permit tailor made solutions to customer problems and interoperability with all modern crash facilities. The modular architecture of Kistler's tried and tested segment construction offers maximum flexibility in the design of SmartCrash barriers. Their versatility permits fast and easy adaptation to the requirements of the current crash guidelines (EuroNCAP, AZT, TRL etc.), which distinguish between, for example, head-on and offset crash impacts.
The SmartCrash system consists of SmartCrash elements with integrated data preprocessing and digital signal output (using the MicroDau module from Kayser-Threde or optional the newly introduced M-Bus from Messring).
Kistler, the first and still the only supplier of crash barriers with piezo technology instruments, has more than twenty years' experience in the field of crash measurement technology.
