Safety testing solutions provider Humanetics and Messring, a provider of crash test technology, have expanded their longstanding relationship with the announcement of a new collaboration focused on delivering integrated and high-performance active safety testing products.
Humanetics’ platforms will be integrated with Messring’s portfolio of static and articulated dummy targets, such as pedestrians, children, powered two-wheelers and standard sized vehicles. The integrated package is designed to facilitate a more efficient setup and execution of active safety tests.
Markus Schmidl, managing director of Humanetics Austria, said, “This collaboration puts some structure to our existing excellent working relationship with Messring. It will allow us to demonstrate and showcase the integrated platform and dummy targets together, sell them as a single package, to simplify the process for customers, and explore ways to enhance the product performance through collaboration.”
Also included in the collaboration is the availability of Messring’s Child Presence Detection (CPD) systems dummy direct to Humanetics’ customers. The CPD dummy reproduces the natural breathing motion, body size and shape of a newborn baby to evaluate automotive child detection technologies.
Florian Lenz, CEO of Messring, added, “Working together with Humanetics, we see a tremendous opportunity to enhance our product offerings and simplify the testing process for our customers. Our combined expertise and technologies will lead to better, more efficient testing solutions that support the automotive industry’s ongoing commitment to safer mobility.”
