Inflatable personal restraint systems
An electronic module assembly (EMA) for use in controlling one or more personal restraint systems. A programmed processor within the EMA is configured to determine when a personal restraint system associated with each seat in a vehicle should be deployed. In addition, the programmed processor is configured to perform a diagnostic self-test to determine if the EMA and the personal restraint systems are operational. In one embodiment, results of the diagnostic self-test routine are displayed on a display included on the electronic module assembly. In an alternative embodiment, the results of the diagnostic self-test routine are transmitted via a wireless transceiver to a remote device. The remote device can include a wireless interrogator or can be a remote computer system such as a cabin management computer system.

CONTROL CIRCUIT, CONTROL SYSTEM, AND TRANSPORTATION DEVICE
A control circuit includes: a current detection unit, where the current detection unit is configured to: when being connected to a battery, output a first type signal when detecting that the battery has an overcurrent or a short circuit; and a driver circuit, where an input terminal of the driver circuit is connected to a signal output terminal of the current detection unit, an output terminal of the driver circuit is configured to connect to a safety module in the target loop, and the driver circuit is configured to output, in response to receiving the first type signal transmitted from the current detection unit, a drive signal to drive the safety module to be disconnected, where the target loop is a loop in the battery or a loop in a device in which the battery is located.
Vehicle impact detection device
A vehicle impact detection device includes: an amplifier configured to receive and amplify an impact signal of a vehicle; a comparative voltage circuit configured to generate a first reference signal; a first comparator configured to output a control signal indicating that a predetermined first impact detection condition or a predetermined second impact detection condition is satisfied, based on an amplified signal output by the amplifier and the first reference signal; and a driver configured to cut off an output of a battery on basis of the control signal, wherein the comparative voltage circuit is configured to reduce a magnitude of the first reference signal over time in response to detection of the amplified signal output by the amplifier.
