An anti-roll bar (roll bar, anti-sway bar, sway bar, stabilizer bar) is an automobile suspension part that helps reduce the body roll of a vehicle during fast cornering or over road irregularities. It links opposite front or rear wheels to a torsion spring using short lever arms for anchors.
By altering stabilizer bar stiffness, this system acts to reduce body tilt during cornering, keeping the vehicle more level during turns and improving handling, as opposed to the natural tendency of a vehicle to roll due to the lateral forces experienced during high-speed maneuvering. The active stabilizer system relies on vehicle body sensors ...
That is, a stiffer bar would result in more load transfer, keeping the inside tires more firmly planted. This of course plays into the other drawback mentioned, which is loss of independence.

An active suspension is a type of automotive suspension that uses an onboard control system to control the vertical movement of the vehicle's wheels and axles relative to the chassis or vehicle frame, rather than the conventional passive suspension that relies solely on large springs to maintain static support and dampen the vertical wheel movements caused by the road surface.
An active rollover protection (ARP), is a system that recognizes impending rollover and selectively applies brakes to resist. [1]ARP builds on electronic stability control and its three chassis control systems already on the vehicle – anti-lock braking system, traction control and yaw control.
Roll bar or rollbar may refer to: Roll bar, also known as anti-roll bar or sway bar, a torsion spring bar that reduces vehicle roll; Roll cage, a vehicle frame designed to protect occupants in the event of a crash; Rollover protection structure, or rollover bar, similar in purpose to a roll cage, and fitted to open-topped cars or agricultural ...
Some tractor operators have raised concerns about using ROPS in low-clearance environments, such as in orchards and buildings. In response, NIOSH developed an Automatically Deploying Rollover Protective Structure (AutoROPS) which stays in a lowered position until a rollover condition is determined, at which time it deploys to a fully extended and locked position.
Anti-Aim A type of cheat commonly found in first-person shooter games that makes it difficult or impossible for the user's hitbox es to be hit. This can be achieved many ways, but the most common ones are rapidly moving the user's hitbox es, flipping hitbox es (usually backwards or sideways), and sending false packets to the server. anti-RPG
