  2. Automated emergency braking system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_emergency...

    Schematic of an Advanced emergency braking system The World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations define AEBS (also automated emergency braking in some jurisdictions). UN ECE regulation 131 requires a system which can automatically detect a potential forward collision and activate the vehicle braking system to decelerate a vehicle with ...

  3. Collision avoidance system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collision_avoidance_system

    The forward emergency braking system judges that deceleration is required, it alerts the driver using both a screen display and sound, then generates a force that pushes the accelerator pedal up and applies partial braking to assist the driver in slowing the vehicle down.

  4. Automatic braking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_braking

    Advanced emergency braking system, where brakes are applied automatically in case of emergency; Emergency brake assist, known as EBA, which increases braking effectiveness when a human driver executes a panic stop; Anti-lock braking system, which maximizes braking friction on slippery surfaces or during an emergency braking maneuver

  5. Emergency brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_brake

    Advanced emergency braking system, where brakes are applied automatically in case of emergency; Emergency brake assist (EBA or BA), which increases braking effectiveness when a human driver executes a panic stop; Parking brake or hand brake in automobiles, which can also be used in case of failure of the main braking system

  6. Electronic stability control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_stability_control

    In intermediate level ESC systems, ABS will be disabled, or the computer will actively lock the wheels when brakes are applied. In these systems, or in vehicles without ABS, the performance in emergency braking in slippery conditions is greatly improved as grip state can change extremely rapidly and unpredictably off-road when coupled with inertia.

  7. Automotive lighting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_lighting

    Emergency stop signalling is a lighting function wherein the vehicle's stop (brake) lights and/or hazard/turn indicators flash in phase at 3 to 5 Hz under heavy or urgent braking. The emergency stop signal is automatically activated if the vehicle speed is greater than 50 km/h (31 mph) and the emergency braking logic defined by regulation No ...

  8. Automotive safety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_safety

    The terms "active" and "passive" are simple but important terms in the world of automotive safety. "Active safety" is used to refer to technology assisting in the prevention of a crash and "passive safety" to components of the vehicle (primarily airbags, seatbelts and the physical structure of the vehicle) that help to protect occupants during a crash.

  9. Emergency brake assist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_brake_assist

    Brake assist (BA or BAS) or emergency brake assist (EBA) is a term for an automobile braking technology that increases braking pressure in an emergency. The first application was developed jointly by Daimler-Benz and TRW/LucasVarity. Research conducted in 1992 at the Mercedes-Benz driving simulator in Berlin revealed that more than 90% of ...
