Before the Dummy is placed in the crash vehicle, various points and angles must be determined so that the doll is also positioned in the vehicle in accordance with the design. One of those values is that H point (Hip point). Aicon 3D Systems now offers for the Crash Test the solution "Move Inspect DPS" for seat presetting and determination of the H-point for various test scenarios
The H point is the pivot point between the torso and thighs and determines the theoretical position of the vehicle occupant's hips. He is using the H point mannequin (H-Point Manikin) determined according to international guidelines.
Position the H-point mannequin
The H-point mannequin is made according to the established Insertion procedure on the seat positioned. Then the backrest angle, seat height and seat length adjustment are set up. The Move Inspect DPS determines the relevant angles and positions online. It determines the coordinates of the H point in the object or in the Vehicle Coordinate system.
This means that the target data is available for the later Positioning the dummy before the crash test. The system is suitable for all manufacturer-specific H-point mannequins available on the market.
