There is some significant advantages to Helite's technology versus other airbag systems. First, it is a homogeneous airbag, i.e. one piece airbag that inflates all at once. Other airbag systems on the market do not offer a 1 piece airbag. Instead the airbag is divided into 2 or more sections. This leads to off-time deployment, where one section of the airbag may deploy later than others. Secondly, Helite is the only airbag solution that provides full protection from the neck to the tailbone.
