Zusammenfassung:A shape sensing system for an anthropomorphic test device is disclosed that includes a plurality of body parts and at least one optical fiber that has a plurality of cores in a spaced and parallel relationship with one another that extend between ends of the optical fiber for sensing positions of the body parts. Each of the cores have a plurality of grating sensors disposed along a length thereof capable of determining a position and orientation of the body parts.
