Abstract:
A method may include receiving, via a processor, an ejection initiation signal indicating an ejection event for an ejection seat of an aircraft has been initiated; commanding, via the processor, a retraction mechanism to retract a cuff assembly towards a seat back of the ejection seat in response to the ejection initiation signal; and commanding, via the processor, a guillotine to sever a cord coupled to the cuff assembly.
