What does active braking mean?
2 Answers
Active braking has the following specific meanings: 1. The active braking system refers to the situation where the vehicle is driving normally under non-adaptive cruise conditions, and when encountering sudden dangerous situations, it automatically generates a braking effect to slow down the vehicle. However, not all active braking systems can stop the car. Active braking is an auxiliary function and cannot completely replace the driver's braking. 2. The active braking system is part of the vehicle's safety assistance system. The active braking technology system can achieve active deceleration and also reduce vehicle emergency losses and risks. The active braking system can prevent or reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents, but it cannot eliminate accidents. Therefore, civilized use of vehicles is very important.
I remember my first experience with autonomous emergency braking was when I was driving drowsy on the highway. The truck in front suddenly braked hard, and before I could react, the car stopped by itself - it nearly scared the pants off me. Simply put, autonomous braking means the car can detect dangers on its own. When it senses obstacles or pedestrians ahead, it automatically applies the brakes for you. The car is equipped with radar and cameras that scan road conditions 24/7. If it detects an imminent collision, it first beeps to alert you. If you don't hit the brakes within one second, it automatically stops the car. Nowadays, even entry-level new cars around 100,000 RMB come with this feature, which is especially useful for absent-minded veteran drivers like me. However, the sensors may malfunction in rainy weather, so it's important to keep the front of the car clean.
