Has slow-motion starting at 19 seconds, and it's still kind of hard to tell because of the angle.
Here's a video of a that same system (according to a Dainese press release) in action on a racetrack in Valencia:

In this example, you can *clearly* see that he is off the bike completely before it starts to deploy. There may be a couple of factors in play as to when the airbag deploys.

"The system is fully independent and connected neither physically or via radio
to the motorcycle;"
