AIRBAG DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING DEPLOYMENT

An airbag device and a method for controlling deployment of the same are proposed. The airbag device is configured to protect a passenger by controlling an airbag cushion deployed toward the rear space of a seatback in an event of a vehicle collision, and the airbag device includes an airbag cushion deploying toward the rear space of the seatback, a sensor part detecting a seating status and a seating posture of a passenger with respect to each seat, and a controller, in an event of a collision, configured to change and control a deploying status of the airbag cushion and an inflation amount of the airbag cushion in response to the seating status and the seating posture of the passenger.
