Active Safety Systems
TRW'S Electric Park Brake (EPB) functions as a hydraulic brake for standard applications and an electric brake for parking. A traditional pedal or lever is replaced by a compact actuator switch.
TRW's Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) 77 GHz radar technology provides automatic acceleration, deceleration or braking to maintain the driver's selected headway.
TRW has developed scalable 24 GHz radar that supports distance and collision warning at motorway speeds, collision mitigation braking in low speed city traffic, follow to stop adaptive cruise control ("ACC"), and activation of reversible restraint systems.
TRW's Electrically Powered Steering (EPS) systems consume power only when steering assist is needed. Belt drive EPS applies assist power to the rack with a belt drive and ball nut mechanism.
by monitoring velocity information and driver inputs, Electronic Stability Control (ESC) can modulate the throttle and apply the brakes to reduce the possibility of loss of driver control.
TRW's Electronic Stability Control - Regenerative (ESC-R) offers full vehicle stability functionality and can provide brake blending functionality for hybrid regenerative braking systems.
