  2. Invention An American inventor, John W. Hetrick, a retired industrial engineer, designed the original safety cushion for automotive use in 1952 at his kitchen table. His patent lasted only 17 years. Dr. David S. Breed invented and developed a key component for automotive use: the ball-in-tube inertial sensor for crash detection. Breed Corporation marketed this innovation to Chrysler in 1967. A similar crash-restraint, developed by Eaton, Yale & Towne Inc. for Ford was soon offered as an automatic safety system in the USA.
