How do I get in contact to the inventor of the airbag?

Question

I want to thank the inventor or the company that designed the airbag. I was in an auto accident 3 weeks ago and my car was destroyed. Yet, I was able to walk out of my car safely. I just feel that I need to thank someone about this invention. At first I didn’t' think Airbags was important but now I do.

Answer 1

Allen Breed was holding the patent (U.S. #5,071,161) to the only crash sensing technology available at the birth of the airbag industry.

Breed invented a "sensor and safety system" in 1968, the world's first electromechanical automotive airbag system.
