Cushioning Injuries to Pedestrians

Per a quote on thecarconnection.com,

"Body design features, designed to cushion injuries to pedestrians, were implemented in Japan in 1998, Sugimoto said. The bodies of the following U.S. models now have this protective feature – Acura TSX and RSX, Honda Civic, Pilot, Element, CR-V and Accord."

what could these be? styrofoam in the bumpers?

I would think the space between the hood and the engine components.
