World’s 1st Multi-Collision Airbag system has been designed by Hyundai Motor Group.

This new system allows the airbags to deploy effectively upon a secondary impact by calibrating the status of the vehicle and the occupants.
As per Hyundai the currently available systems, do not offer secondary protection in the event where the primary impact, which might be enough to deploy the airbags, is followed by collisions with secondary objects, such as trees, electrical posts or other vehicles. And such cases are claimed to occur in 3 out of every 10 accidents.
The system detects the occupant position in the cabin following an initial collision and is designed to deploy even faster when initial safety systems may not be effective. The company has recalibrated the collision intensity required for deployment in such a manner that the system deploys airbags more promptly during the secondary impact. The company says that it has analysed multi-collision scenarios in multilateral ways to improve airbag performance and precision in secondary collisions.

Microdots technology to make car almost theft proof

To counter car thefts, Indian govt has decided to adopt microdots technology which is widely used in several counties including South Africa and the US. The vehicles stolen go untraced since auto-lifters take out the engines & other valuable parts before destroying the vehicles. Microdots is a technology in which thousands of micro dots are sprayed over the body of vehicle. These small laser-etched dots contain nano-size (0.5 mm) particles that carry information like unique number and vehicle identification number. These dots can be seen by using UV light and since the dots are sprayed throughout the vehicle body, it becomes easy to trace the vehicle as even a small part of the dismantled car can be used to trace the stolen vehicle. The government plans to roll out the technology as an optional system initially and the price of this feature is likely to be around Rs 1,000. The car, truck or bus would require at least 10,000 microdots, while at least 5,000 such dots would be neede
