Victoria’s Transport Accident Commission (TAC) has announced the creation of a humanoid model designed to withstand the force of car crashes and named him Graham.
The TAC has collaborated with Royal Melbourne Hospital’s trauma surgeon Christian Kenfield, crash investigation expert David Logan from the Monash University Accident Research Centre and world-renowned Melbourne artist Patricia Piccinini to produce the interactive sculpture that is said to display human vulnerability.
“Cars have evolved a lot faster than humans and Graham helps us understand why we need to improve every aspect of our roads system to protect ourselves from our own mistakes,” TAC CEO Joe Calafiore said in a statement Thursday.
Designed with bodily features that may be present if human beings evolved to withstand the forces involved in crashes, Graham has a thick, helmet-like skull with an in-built crumple zone to absorb impact forces and prevent damage to the brain.
The face is covered in fatty tissue to stop him from breaking any delicate bones, such as the cheekbones or nose, during impact. The neck is absent and his ribs join the skull to avoid common neck injuries.
