Supplemental restraint systems designed for the Toyota Tundra pickup truck incorporate inflatable safety devices. These systems are strategically placed within the vehicle’s cabin to mitigate occupant injury during a collision. The deployment of these devices is triggered by sensors that detect rapid deceleration exceeding predetermined thresholds.
The inclusion of these systems provides a crucial layer of protection, reducing the risk of head and chest trauma in the event of a crash. Their development and integration represent a significant advancement in automotive safety technology. Early systems were relatively basic, while modern iterations incorporate more sophisticated sensors and deployment algorithms for improved efficacy and tailored response based on impact severity.
