The story of Bumper
Bumpers were originally introduced on automobiles in the early 1900s to provide protection to the vehicle's body in low-speed collisions. Early bumpers were made of heavy metal and were mounted to the frame of the vehicle. These bumpers were often and added to the overall style of the car.

Over , bumpers became standardized and were designed to absorb the impact of a collision by compressing and then rebounding to their shape. The addition of hydraulic and pneumatic systems to bumper design helped to improve their effectiveness and reduce damage to the vehicle in collisions.

In the 1960s and 1970s, the US government mandated that all cars be equipped with bumpers that could withstand low-speed collisions without causing significant damage. This to the development of new materials, such as plastic and foam, which were lighter and -absorbent than metal.

Today, bumpers continue to evolve with advancements in materials and technology. Some newer cars are equipped with "active" bumpers that can sense an impending collision and adjust their position or stiffness to reduce the impact.

Overall, bumpers have played a significant role in the security and design of automobiles. As vehicles continue to evolve, bumpers will likely continue to be an important component in providing protection to the vehicle and its occupants in the event of a collision.
