Abstract
A carrier system includes at least one seat and a radio wave detection device. The radio wave detection device is configured to emit a detection wave towards at least one seat of the carrier. A reflected wave reflected in response to the detection wave is received by the radio wave detection device. A position of an occupied seat and a type of an occupant on the occupied seat are determined in response to the received reflected wave. A safety mechanism is activated in response to the position of the occupied seat and the type of the occupants.
