METHOD FOR PROTECTING A VEHICLE OCCUPANT, CONTROL UNIT FOR ACTIVATING AN ACTUATOR SYSTEM FOR PROTECTING A VEHICLE OCCUPANT AND SYSTEM WITH A CONTROL UNIT OF THIS TYPE AND A CORRESPONDING ACTUATOR SYSTEM

摘要

A method for protecting a vehicle occupant and a control unit (ECU) for controlling an actuator system (S, MSB) for protecting a vehicle occupant is proposed. The vehicle occupant is moved into a crash direction before the crash by an actuator system. The actuator system is activated in dependence on a sensor signal which characterizes a braking operation.
