Pneumatic valve failover lets manual brake input override autonomous control, preventing accidental deployment during driver takeover.
Automatic EPB engagement after a minimum risk maneuver keeps the vehicle stationary and blocks autonomous reactivation until restart.
Automatic deceleration lets a motorcycle rider-assist controller stop or crawl behind a leading vehicle without manual brake input.
Sensor feedback controls dolly braking and wheel speed during reverse A-train maneuvers, improving docking predictability without trailer breakdown.
Severity-based stop planning adapts autonomous vehicle paths to changing conditions, balancing safe stopping with motion-planning complexity.
Compensated drive and braking torque enables precise low-speed vehicle movement in tight spaces without the latency of conventional braking.
Axle speed and brake pressure are used to estimate brake heat, detect overtemperature, and trigger cooling or alerts to protect work vehicle brakes.
A tilted optical surface and split light paths separate stray light from reflected signals, preventing detector saturation in short-range LiDAR.
A gear cam and spring module replaces hydraulic railroad retarders to cut maintenance, absorb shock, and reduce trackside footprint.
Electrical brake signaling replaces delayed pneumatic control, enabling near-instant proportional trailer air brake actuation.
Braking support is amplified from environment data, then tapered using rider brake input changes to avoid force drop-off that conflicts with intent.
By shrinking sensing range as speed drops, this AGV control approach cuts travel time and avoids excessive stopping clearance.
Collision-risk braking is adjusted with real-time lean posture feedback to avoid balance loss during emergency brake assist.
Automatic brake hold uses lever position and vehicle speed to switch hold and release states, easing operation for disabled drivers.
Independent brake activation and 3D aircraft sensing let airport vehicles stop immediately and guide operators during close maneuvering.
Lateral velocity tracking helps suppress unnecessary braking when an adjacent vehicle briefly enters the lane to avoid an obstacle.
Sonar distance data tied to vehicle position improves obstacle-aware control when image-only sensing lacks the precision needed for parking.
Redundant speed, position, force, and ADAS inputs keep EPB motion-state detection reliable when speed sensors fail.
Staged acceleration suppression before deceleration helps distracted-driver control avoid abrupt gap reduction and uneasy speed changes.
Capability messages with limiting and preferred MSD operating points help VMM improve energy use, wear, and ride comfort.
When the acceleration sensor fails, the controller switches to fixed target deceleration so automatic braking still reduces collision damage.
Stored deceleration profiles let a brake controller handle CAN faults, reduce message congestion, and execute safe-state braking automatically.
Radar height sensing adjusts sonar braking thresholds so vehicles can ride over curbs while still stopping for larger obstacles.
