2. Automated emergency braking system - Wikipedia

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

   Autonomous: the system acts independently of the driver to avoid or mitigate the accident. Emergency: the system will intervene only in a critical situation. Braking: the system tries to avoid the accident by applying the brakes. Time-to-collision could be a way to choose which avoidance method (braking or steering) is most appropriate. [6]

3. 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 ...

   2015: "IntelliSafe" with auto brake at the intersection. The Volvo XC90 features automatic braking if the driver turns in front of an oncoming car. This is a common scenario at busy city crossings as well as on highways, where the speed limits are higher. [citation needed] March 2020: Volvo recalled 121,000 cars over auto emergency braking ...

   Rejecting a request from an automaker organization, NHTSA declines to reconsider the AEB requirement, which will go into effect in 2029—maybe.

6. Parking brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parking_brake

   In manual transmission vehicles, the parking brake is engaged to help keep the vehicle stationary while parked, especially if parked on an incline. [2] [3]While automatic transmission vehicles have a "Park" gear with a parking pawl that immobilizes the transmission, it is still recommended to use the parking brake, as the pawl in the gearbox could fail due to stress or another vehicle striking ...

7. 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

8. Electronically controlled pneumatic brakes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronically_controlled...

   To release the brakes, the engineer charges the brake pipe. This method of controlling the brakes on freight and passenger cars has remained virtually unchanged since its invention by George Westinghouse in 1868. The conventional braking system suffers from many weaknesses; one of which is in the reaction time. Because the engineer controls the ...
