- A seat track position sensor uses the Hall switch technology to measure the position input for dual-stage airbags. Unlike seatbelt buckle sensor ICs, seat position sensor ICs typically use a vane interrupt sensing style to determine as to which seat area is located along the seat line. A seat track position sensor includes a magnet on either side of the seat track and a unipolar Hall-effect switch. Seat rail location sensors detect the front seat position and provide information essential for airbag control.
- Several sensor ICs can be used to determine different positions along the seat line, which can then be used to determine the driver’s relative position on the steering wheel or dashboard by using the airbag deployment controller.
