Systems and techniques are described for event detection. A described system includes a vehicle body containing body regions, sensors, processor, and memory. The sensors can include at least one sensor positioned about at least one body region of the body regions. The at least one body region can be associated with a region event type. The memory can store instructions thereon that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations which can include obtaining data associated with at least one sensor measurement from the at least one sensor, determining that the at least one sensor measurement is associated with the region event type, and determining that an event associated with the region event type occurred based on determining that the at least one sensor measurement is associated with the region event type and that the at least one body region is associated with the region event type.

Provided are an apparatus for protecting a pedestrian and a control method thereof. The apparatus for protecting a pedestrian includes a front object detection unit configured to detect an object in front of a vehicle; a collision detection unit configured to detect a collision of a vehicle; a protection module driving unit configured to drive a protection module for protecting a pedestrian when the pedestrian collides with the vehicle; and a control unit configured to determine the front object as a hood lift target on the basis of a detection result of the front object detection unit, to determine the collision as a hood lift target collision on the basis of a detection result of the collision detection unit, and to operate the protection module driving unit in case of the hood lift target collision of the hood lift target.

A vehicular seat cushion airbag is disclosed. The seat cushion airbag includes a first cushion, which is mounted on a seat cushion of a vehicle so as to be expanded at the rear portion of a passenger's thigh, and a second cushion, which extends from the first cushion in an upward direction of a bolster portion of the seat cushion so as to be expanded toward the lateral side surface of the passenger's thigh, wherein the first cushion is expanded at the rear portion of the passenger's thigh so as to prevent forward movement of the passenger's pelvis, and the second cushion is expanded toward the lateral side surface of the passenger's thigh so as to prevent outward spreading of the passenger's legs.

A pedestrian protection device for a motor vehicle includes a crossbar and a deformation device which is arranged in front of the crossbar. The deformation device has bending limbs with ends which contact a surface or come into contact with the surface in the event of a collision of the motor vehicle and which are designed to be movable along the surface as a result of the collision, and a latching device is formed on the surface, said latching device being latchable with the ends of the bending limbs as a result of the collision. The deformation device has a plurality of such bending limbs, wherein a first bending limb and a second bending limb are arranged adjacently to each other, and the first bending limb and the second bending limb are offset relative to each other in the movement direction of the bending limbs and/or the end of the first bending limb and the end of the second bending limb are designed to be movable in opposite directions.
