ENHANCING MOTOR VEHICLE DRIVER AWARENESS OF MOTOR VEHICLE DEGREE OF PROXIMITY TO A MOTOR VEHICLE ROADHOLDING LIMIT DURING SPORTS DRIVING

摘要

An automotive electronic control unit connectable to on-board automotive sensors/systems via an on-board automotive communication network to receive automotive data and programmed to process motor vehicle data to enhance motor vehicle driver awareness of motor vehicle degree of proximity to the motor vehicle roadholding limit. To this purpose, the automotive electronic control unit is programmed to compute current accelerations to which the moto vehicle is subject, compute a motor vehicle roadholding limit, and cause a motor vehicle display to provide the driver with a visual feedback of the degree of proximity of the motor vehicle to the roadholding limit.
