Drive by wire
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Drive-by-wire technology in automotive industry replaces the traditional mechanical and hydraulic control systems with electronic control systems using electromechanical actuators and human-machine interfaces such as pedal and steering feel emulators. Hence, the traditional components such as the steering column, intermediate shafts, pumps, hoses, fluids, belts and brake boosters and master cylinders are eliminated from the vehicle.
Examples include electronic throttle control and brake-by-wire.
