  7. Chapter 1Introduction to Vehicle Control System

  8. AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY ROADMAP

  9. ABS • ABS is an acronym for anti-lock braking system. First developed and patented in 1936, ABS is actually derived from the German term "antiblockiersystem." • Anti-lock brakes are designed to prevent skidding and help drivers maintain steering control during an emergency stopping situation. • In cars equipped with conventional brakes, the driver pumps the brakes, whereas in cars equipped with four-wheel ABS, the driver keeps a firm foot on the brake, allowing the system to rapidly and automatically pump the brakes.

  10. Traction Control • Traction Control is used to prevent the drive wheels from losing grip when accelerating. • Traction control is an enhancement of ABS that can also be used to balance the traction torques in all drive wheels

  11. What is the difference between ABS & Traction Control? • ABS manage the grip of the tires for braking maneuver • Traction Control manage the grip of the tires for accelerating maneuver

  12. Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) • VSC = ABS + Traction Control + Yaw Control • VSC is able to prevent a car from sliding sideways

  13. Brake Assist • Brake Assist is a generic term for an automobile braking technology that increases braking pressure in an emergency situation. • The brake assist system identify the state of ‘emergency’ of a road vehicle by using brake pedal force.

  14. ARC • Vehicles lean when cornering due to the weight transfer imposed by lateral acceleration acting on the suspension. Factors contributing to the roll angle of the vehicle include vehicle height and suspension stiffness. • ARC system uses hydraulic/pneumatic and electronic technology to reduce or eliminate the vehicle roll angle in cornering, which improves handling. This improvement to vehicle handling can help reduce rollover risk.

  15. ARC System

  16. Adaptive Cruise Control Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) technology automatically adjust the vehicle speed and distance to that of a target vehicle. ACC uses a long range radar sensor to detect a target vehicle up to 200 meters in front and automatically adjusts the ACC vehicle speed and gap accordingly. ACC automatically decelerates or accelerates the vehicle according to the desired speed and distance settings established by the driver. As per standard cruise control the driver can override the system at any time.

  17. Active Body Control • Active Suspension - Hydraulic - Pneumatic • Semi-Active Suspension - Variable orifice - MR fluid

  18. X-by Wire • X-by wire: replace mechanical system in automobile with electrical system for faster response, easier to control and lighter vehicle total weight • The most common x-by-wire technology available in the market are brake by wire & steer by wire

  19. Collision Avoidance Technology • All the automotive technologies mentioned previously are considered as collision avoidance technologies • Ongoing / Latest research on collision avoidance: Active bumper system, active hood lift system, vehicle to vehicle communication, etc.
