THUMS

The Total Human Model for Safety, or THUMS™, is a joint development of Toyota Motor Corporation and Toyota Central R&D Labs. THUMS represents humans that are more detailed than dummy models, including the outer shape, but also bones, muscles, ligaments, tendons and internal organs.

Therefore, THUMS can be used in automotive crash simulations to identify safety problems and find their solutions. THUMS is limited to civilian use and may under no circumstances be used in military applications.
