Human Body Model Safety Suite by Autoliv

Virtual testing can be used for analyzing complex crash conditions that are difficult
to replicate physically. It is becoming an important complement to physical crash
testing in the automotive industry, driven by shorter vehicle development cycles,
evolving safety requirements, and the need for earlier insights during vehicle development.

As regulations and consumer rating programs move toward greater use of virtual methods,
Autoliv supports the automotive industry to meet evolving requirements, accelerate
innovation, and advance protection for a more diverse range of occupants.

**Autoliv Human Body Model Safety Suite**

Autoliv’s HBM Safety Suite is an integrated virtual safety platform that combines
an advanced Human Body Model for crash simulation with dedicated software tools 
for analysis, visualization, and decision-making. The Human Body Model is a detailed
digital representation of human anatomy, that can provide insights into occupant
response and potential injury mechanisms that are not available from physical dummies
alone.

"Virtual testing is becoming an increasingly important part of how the automotive
industry advances vehicle safety. Autoliv’s HBM Safety Suite provides detailed insights
into how the human body may respond in a crash, helping engineers evaluate and optimize
safety performance earlier in the development process. By combining advanced Human
Body Models with dedicated analysis and visualization tools, we can support the 
development of safer vehicles and contribute to our vision of Saving More Lives,"
said Fabien Dumont, Chief Technology Officer at Autoliv.

By transforming complex simulation data into clear, actionable insights, Autoliv’s
HBM Safety Suite helps to evaluate safety performance in virtual environments and
optimize safety solutions for a diverse range of occupants. Used alongside physical
crash testing, the platform provides additional insights into occupant response 
and injury mechanisms to support the development of safer vehicles, while also helping
reduce lead times and enabling to improve cost efficiency.

Toyota has recently started using Autoliv’s HBM Safety Suite to evaluate its capabilities
as part of its virtual safety development activities. Autoliv plans to make the 
platform available more broadly across the industry in 2026, supporting automakers
as virtual testing becomes a more important complement to physical crash testing.
