Carbon-Fibre Reinforced Construction
Key structural components are manufactured using carbon-fibre-infused engineering plastic, giving a strong, rigid and lightweight build suitable for repeated demonstrations and transportation.
Road Safety Education Equipment
Innovat3D Seatbelt Demonstration System
A modern replacement for older DIMS/DIMMS-style seatbelt demonstration cars.
Designed and manufactured by Innovat3D Ltd, the system provides an engaging physical way to demonstrate the importance of seatbelt use during road-safety education, school visits, public events and awareness campaigns.
It uses a model car, ramp and demonstration figures to show the difference between wearing and not wearing a seatbelt.

Purpose
Built for Real-World Road Safety Education
The Innovat3D Seatbelt Demonstration System turns an important road-safety message into something people can physically see and understand.
Multiple articulated demonstration occupants are positioned throughout the vehicle, allowing audiences to see the difference restraint systems can make during a simulated sudden stop.
Rather than relying solely on presentations, statistics or videos, the system provides instructors with a physical demonstration that can be used repeatedly during road-safety sessions.
It is particularly suited to schools, colleges, community events, public engagement activities and road-safety awareness campaigns.
Specification
Engineered to Last
Bearing-Supported Wheels
Bearings within the wheel system provide smooth and repeatable movement along the demonstration ramp.
Magnetic Design Features
Strategically positioned magnets securely locate selected removable components while allowing convenient access when required.
Retractable Seatbelts
The occupants use miniature retractable seatbelt mechanisms rather than simple fixed straps, adding considerably more realism and functionality.
Articulated Demonstration Occupants
Multiple articulated crash-test-style occupants with moving limbs and bodies make occupant movement clearly visible during a demonstration.
Five-Seat Configuration
Five individual articulated demonstration occupants are positioned throughout the cabin.
Removable Vehicle Body
The complete outer body lifts from the chassis, exposing the occupants, seating arrangement and internal design for demonstration, inspection and maintenance.
Robust Internal Chassis
The internal chassis has been designed specifically for repeated demonstrations rather than static display.
Multi-Material Manufacturing
Different materials are used where appropriate to provide the required rigidity, movement, appearance and functionality.
The System
A Complete Demonstration System
The vehicle forms part of a complete demonstration system featuring a fold-out ramp designed to mimic a section of road.
The road ramp provides the controlled path used during demonstrations and folds away to make transportation and storage considerably easier.
During a demonstration, the vehicle travels along the road surface before coming to a controlled sudden stop. This allows audiences to visually observe the movement of the articulated occupants and the role of the seatbelts.
Together, the vehicle, occupants, retractable restraint system and road ramp create a memorable hands-on road-safety demonstration.

Method
How the System Works
- 01
Position
The demonstration vehicle and occupants are prepared on the road ramp.
- 02
Restrain
Selected occupants can be secured using the integrated retractable seatbelt system.
- 03
Release
The vehicle travels along the demonstration road.
- 04
Demonstrate
The controlled stop visually demonstrates occupant movement and the importance of restraint.
Media
Watch the Demonstration
Seatbelt demonstration run
The complete vehicle travels down the ramp to the stopping area.
Occupant movement demonstration
The full run and occupant movement remain visible after the controlled stop.
Education
Designed for Education
Road-safety messages are often communicated using statistics, presentations and videos.
The Innovat3D Seatbelt Demonstration System adds a physical demonstration that audiences can watch up close.
Its visual and mechanical nature helps instructors create conversations around road safety while making the importance of vehicle restraint easier to understand.
Its visual nature makes the system particularly suitable for engaging children, young people and community audiences.
Supports discussions around
- Seatbelt use
- Passenger restraint
- Occupant movement
- Driver responsibility
- Passenger responsibility
- Vehicle safety
- Travelling unrestrained
- General road safety
- Collision awareness

Supply
A Complete Ready-to-Use System
The Innovat3D Seatbelt Demonstration System is supplied as a complete purpose-built road-safety education system.
The set combines the demonstration vehicle, articulated occupants, retractable seatbelt system and fold-out road ramp into one robust and reusable package.
It has been designed for organisations that need a professional and engaging way to demonstrate the importance of seatbelt use at schools, colleges, public events and road-safety campaigns.
Each system is manufactured by Innovat3D Ltd and supplied as a defined, complete product rather than a configurable kit.
Manufacture
Designed & Manufactured by Innovat3D Ltd
The Innovat3D Seatbelt Demonstration System has been designed, developed and manufactured by Innovat3D Ltd using modern CAD design, additive manufacturing and engineering materials.
From the structural chassis and removable body through to the articulated occupants, wheel system and restraint mechanisms, the system has been developed specifically as a reusable road-safety education product.
Because Innovat3D controls the design and manufacturing process, replacement components and product support can be provided directly by the manufacturer.
Designed and manufactured in the UK.
