FOUR WHEEL STEERING SYSTEMS

FOUR WHEEL STEERING SYSTEMS

ABSTRACT:

Automotive safety has been the concern of the leading automobile manufactures for a long time. With the help of modern technology scientist and engineers have developed many safety devices which help to save the human life in case of an accident or an emergency.

Brake assist system (BAS) is one such type of safety system. It is an active safety system. Sometimes during an emergency braking situation the driver may press the brake pedal quickly but not hard enough i.e. there may be hesitancy in braking / inadequate braking which may prove fatal.

BAS has been developed to improve these situations.

INTRODUCTION:

This history of automobiles starts from invention of I.C. engines, but real invention was started in 1886 when the first automobile plant was started by Mercedes Benz.

During those days the automobile was not so technically advanced, a motor carriage which could carry two or more persons was the definition of automobile.

As time changed the automobile became more and more technologically advanced and its possession became a ‘status symbol’ in society.

Earlier while purchasing a car the customer would think only two directions i.e. cost & comfort, but it was a just a couple of years back when people started concentrating on the safety of the car i.e. how safe is the car / as human life is more valuable than anything else. The modern day cars like Mercedes Benz, BMW, Rolls Royce, etc. are coming up with a number of safety devices which try to save the human life in case of an accident or an emergency.

The safety equipments are installed only after a number of tests & great amount of research has been carried out.

The leading manufacturers of cars like Rolls Royce, Mercedes Benz have equipped their cars with safety devices using the most modern technology.
