  2. Traction control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traction_control_system

    The predecessor of modern electronic traction control systems can be found in high-torque, high-power rear-wheel-drive cars as a limited slip differential.A limited-slip differential is a purely mechanical system that transfers a relatively small amount of power to the non-slipping wheel, while still allowing some wheel spin to occur.

  3. Electronic stability control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_stability_control

    Electronic stability control (ESC), also referred to as electronic stability program (ESP) or dynamic stability control (DSC), is a computerized technology [1] [2] that improves a vehicle's stability by detecting and reducing loss of traction . [3]

  4. Vehicle safety technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle_safety_technology

    Electronic stability control (also known as roll over protection) is a specific technology that helps keep the vehicle balanced. During harsh weather or tough road conditions that would cause vehicle steering to be extreme, this technology allows the drivers to regain control and prevent possible crashes, roll overs, and fishtails.

  5. Torque vectoring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_vectoring

    Torque vectoring is a technology employed in automobile differentials that has the ability to vary the torque to each half-shaft with an electronic system; or in rail vehicles which achieve the same using individually motored wheels.

    In conjunction with other car safety technologies, such as anti-lock braking and traction control, the ESC can safely help drivers maintain control of the car in unforeseen situations. [ 37 ] Emergency driver assistant facilitates emergency counteract measures if the driver falls asleep or does not perform any driving action after a defined ...

  9. Hill descent control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hill_descent_control_system

    Cruise control buttons can adjust the speed on some vehicles. [2] Applying pressure to the accelerator or brake pedal will override the HDC system. Later implementations combine HDC with traction control and low-range gears and have reduced the set speed to slower than walking pace for extra control.
