European Headform Models

These headforms are used in the EU pedestrian safety regulation (2003/102/EC) and by Euro NCAP in their Pedestrian Testing Protocol. All the headform models have been validated against the standard pendulum calibration test and in addition, the WG17 models have been calibrated using data from a series of rigid plate drop tests.
