Abstract

A system and method for controlling actuation of a vehicle passenger safety device in response to an event possibly requiring actuation of the safety device, wherein a first measure calculated from received vehicle acceleration information is weighted by a second measure, such as a modified vehicle velocity measure, which is itself evaluative of the relative progress of the event. The weighted first measure is thereafter accumulated and compared to a threshold value, with the safety device being actuated when the resulting accumulated weighted first measure exceeds the threshold value.
