Electronic Stability Control
Active safety systems including electronic stability control (ESC) and adaptive cruise control (ACC) help drivers avoid collisions and rollovers. High performance gyros are used in ESC systems to measure yaw, roll, and/or pitch, while high performance low-g accelerometers are used to measure x, y, and/or z acceleration. Sensor data, vehicle speed and steering angle information are linked to the brake system to control vehicle motion.
