Intelligent control boosts braking power

In recent years, car braking systems have become ever more powerful. ABS and ESP in particular have significantly increased safety. Over the same period, however, the standard vacuum-based approach to boosting brake force has remained almost unchanged. Until now, there has been limited scope for recovering braking energy; and the driver's pedal force can only be amplified by a single predetermined degree. Now Bosch has developed the iBooster, an electromechanical brake booster that provides situation-dependent support when the driver initiates braking.
