An anti-lock braking system (ABS) is a safety anti-skid braking system used on aircraft and on land vehicles, such as cars, motorcycles, trucks, and buses. [1] ABS operates by preventing the wheels from locking up during braking, thereby maintaining tractive contact with the road surface and allowing the driver to maintain more control over the ...
By interpreting the speed and force with which the brake pedal is pushed, the system detects if the driver is trying to execute an emergency stop, and if the brake pedal is not fully applied, the system overrides and fully applies the brakes until the anti-lock braking system (ABS) takes over to stop the wheels locking up.

Anti-lock braking system (ABS) restore traction to a car's tires by regulating the brake pressure when the vehicle begins to skid. [32] Alongside helping drivers in emergencies, such as when their car starts to skid on ice, ABS systems can also assist drivers who may lose control of their vehicle. [32]
An antilock-brake system moderates vehicle brake pressure in emergency-stopping situations. Instead of applying sudden, constant pressure to the brakes, the system rapidly pumps them, according to ...
ABS brake-traction control has several advantages over limited-slip and locking differentials, such as steering control of a vehicle is easier, so the system can be continuously enabled. It also creates less stress on powertrain and driveline components, and increases durability as there are fewer moving parts to fail. [3]
CBC then adjusts brake steer torque, brake pressure, yaw rate, and stopping distance, helping the driver keep control of the vehicle while turning both inwards and outwards. [5] Experimentation done with CBC technology has shown that it is an advancement on the traditional Anti Lock Braking System (ABS) featured in modern vehicles.
Chrysler is recalling more than 211,000 SUVs and pickup trucks due to potentially faulty anti-lock braking system software that can disable the vehicles' electronic stability control systems.
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; A feature of an autonomous cruise control system (ACC), when the vehicle ahead is too close; Brake-by-wire
