Abstract

See full text

In an airbag system for a vehicle, when the state of a passenger at a front passenger seat (including the attached state of a child seat) can be detected, airbags are controlled on the basis of the detection state (S19, S21), and that detection state is stored in a RAM (S23). When it is detected that one of 'position offset' of the child seat, 'input signal abnormality', 'hardware error', and passenger detection sensor failure has occurred at the front passenger seat (S12-S15), the contents of the RAM are referred to, and the airbags and the like are controlled on the basis of the sensor state one cycle before that state has been detected (S22).
