Active Spin Control: The Next Step After Anti-Lock Brakes
 |
Active Spin Control: The Next Step After Anti-Lock Brakes Hans' invention consists of a Differential Torque Control System to improve a car's controllability when a driver is faced with radical steering maneuvers or begins to skid or spin out of control. The ASC uses electronic sensors at the rear wheels which feed data to an onboard computer. This computer controls corrective torque applied to these wheels to control spin-out and skid. This invention has won a number of awards and recognitions, including the Siemens Westinghouse Science & Technology Competition 2000, and the International Science and Engineering Fair 2000. |
