- prior art protection systems comprise an activation device that triggers inflation of the inflatable member.
- the activation device may be either manually or automatically activated.
- manual activation devices there may be a time delay due to human reaction time, and, hence, the inflatable member may not inflate quickly enough to provide protection from impact.
- automatic activation device generally the protection system may comprise a sensor that senses the impact, and, in appropriate circumstances, activates triggering. If the sensor/activation device is not accurate effective enough, the triggering timing may be off, causing either false inflation or delayed inflation during real impacts.

- sensor unit 20 may comprise a pressure device attachable to a binding of a ski and located under a ski boot of the user. When the pressure device on the binding registers lack of pressure, a signal is released indicating to processor 18 that the boot has released from the binding.
- the levels monitored by sensor unit 20 may be fed into logic unit 28, where they are compared to pre-defined threshold values, and/or new learned values acquired during the use of the systemlO.
- System 10 learns new values by generally constantly replacing old values with values recently sensed by one or more sensor unit 20.

- the pre-defined parameters may be red-line indications of an approaching impact or accident.
- the pre-defined parameters may be 30G in 10 msec. Once those parameters are surpassed, it may be an indication of an impending accident (whereas, in contrast, disturbance due to a normal pot-hole may be 10G in 35 msec).
- the pre-defined parameter may be 60-degree tilt. It is noted that the above measurements are for exemplary purposes only, and may vary from application to application.
- Memory 22 may provide to logic unit 28 the pre-defined parameters.
- Logic unit 28 may compare the values received from sensor units 20 with the data received from memory 22, and, when the pre-defined levels as received from memory 22 are surpassed by the information received from sensor unit 20, logic unit 28 may cause inflation of protection system 10.
- the pre-defined parameter of 30G in 10msec is surpassed by the data received from sensor unit 20, it may be an indication of an impending accident and logic unit 28 may cause inflation of inflatable member 12.
- system 10 is adaptable for various applications for which pre-defined and/or new parameters of detection may be defined. Examples of such are motorcycle racing, downhill racing, etc.

As an example, for motorcycle applications or skiing applications, if sensor unit 20 is located on the motorcycle or ski, respectively, transceiver 24, may receive the signal from sensor unit 20, and transfer the signal to logic unit 28. Transceiver unit 24 may additionally transmit a wireless pulse which may trigger activation unit 30, if located at a distance from system 10. More than one sensor unit 20 may be used, in either series or parallel connection.
- Logic unit 28 may comprise a digital display, and it may communicate with system 10 via wired and/or wireless connections.
