Venkata, Rengarajan Babu, Bernd Roessler, Matteo Nanetti, Roberto Guggia, Michael G. McCarthy, Wesley HulshofThe Powered two wheeler Integrated Safety (PISa) project, funded by the European Commission within the
6th Framework, aimed at identifying, developing and testing new technologies to provide integrated safety
systems (ISS) for a range of powered two wheelers (PTWs) to improve primary safety and link to secondary
safety systems.
From the analysis of representative crashes involving motorcycles and mopeds, a list of safety systems was
prioritised in terms of their contribution to crash avoidance or injury severity reduction. These systems were
integrated onto two different types of PTW: a large scooter and a light motorcycle.
Experimental tests with the demonstration vehicles showed the potential benefits of the PISa systems
compared to unequipped PTWs. Further system development is required before testing the demonstration
vehicles with non-professional riders.
