9 Physical Principles CISS signals provide additional information to distinguish the severity of a crash Today's accelerometers are sensing the displacement Structural sound is looking for the deformation rate High deformation rates are stimulating sound waves at high frequencies The sound waves are traveling through the structure to the sensing element CISS signals have a 50 times higher frequency range than accelerometers The CISS sensor provides both Information out of one sensing component
