This paper presents an overview about the airbag systems and some of the engineering concepts behind them. Because of the exponentially increasing development of the automotive industry over the last decades, automotive pioneers were racing to secure their place in the automotive market. In their attempts, they were faced with the task of making their products safer to the public. In one way or another this was the main motive behind the design of air bag systems. It has been statistically proven that safety belts and air bags systems reduce the danger of injury by 80% to 90% when compared with unprotected drivers and according to the (insurance institute for high way safety) using seat belts and air bags decreases fatalities by 37% and sever injuries by 52%. Sense their introduction airbags have played a critical role in saving millions of lives and with continuous improvements, there is a potential to save even more lives.
