Drive-by-Wire
Drive-by-Wire is a technology used in modern vehicles that replaces traditional mechanical linkages with electronic controls. Instead of using cables and rods to connect the driver's inputs, such as the steering wheel and pedals, to the vehicle's systems, sensors detect these inputs and send signals to electronic control units. This allows for more precise handling and can improve safety features.
This system enables advanced functionalities like adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assist, enhancing the driving experience. Additionally, Drive-by-Wire can simplify vehicle design, reduce weight, and allow for easier integration of new technologies, making it a key component in the evolution of automotive engineering.
