ABS (Anti-lock Braking System):
As the name implies, the ABS prevents the car wheels from locking when the car brakes suddenly in certain situations. These brakes allow the driver to fully control the car's steering when maximal force is applied to the brake pedal.
Generally, when the driver suddenly applies brakes to a moving car, there is a high probability that the wheels will get stuck due to the sudden brake force and slide on the road. This happens because the momentum of the velocity of the car carries it, and the wheels are not able to
covert that into the rotational movement because of brakes.
ABS, or an Anti-Lock Braking System, is a piece of safety equipment that prevents the wheels of a vehicle from locking up under emergency, panic, or harsh braking conditions.
EBD (Electronic Brakeforce Distribution):
While ABS is the overall automotive braking technology, EBD is just a part of the overall system. However, these elements are equally important in reinforcing the safety department of the vehicles.
The EBD is responsible for distributing the braking power to all car wheels. Also helps in regulating and applying the braking force needed to each wheel according to the road condition, vehicle's load, and speed. The EBD ensures how much braking force is needed by each wheel and then applies the same to achieve the most suitable braking impact.
Brake Assist (BA):
Also known as Emergency Brake Assist (EBA) is another piece of car braking technology. As the name suggests is responsible for assisting the driver in an emergency stop situation. The braking system will work more swiftly when there is sudden braking if it is equipped with the BA feature.
This feature aims to ensure that the brakes are applied in case of an emergency if the driver cannot respond quickly enough. This happens often because, in case of sudden braking, the driver cannot press the brake pedal fully. However, an average driver isn’t fast enough for a situation like this, where a millisecond of delay can translate to catastrophe. This is where Braking Assist steps in.
