Presentation from Mr Depinet, Humanetics (GTR7-06-16):

A schedule for all outstanding work on certification testing and evaluating the effect of possible differences between dummies, and for tightening the corridors, was presented. Volunteers were sought for testing identified different dummies with OEM seats. Corridors will be tightened by excluding dummies with known issues. Humanetics will then evaluate how to retune the outlying (failed) dummies such that they meet the certification requirements. Certification test R&R will also be evaluated. The programme will take at least one year from now, but requires a decision to finalise the with-HR test.

It was noted that a target of 50 dummies would be good to certify over a six month period, in order to have confidence that the less common sources of variation are identified. This should be achievable though the routine certification that will now include the new certification tests.

Action All to comment on the test programme and schedule presented by Humanetics.
