BOSCH Safety Comfort and Convenience Systems

Safety systems, such as the ESP and airbag, have the greatest importance for the driver. They automatically detect hazardous situations and trigger complex procedures to prevent these hazards to the greatest extent permitted by physics or to make their effects less severe for the car's occupants. Comfort and convenience systems make it easier to use many functions in the passenger compartment and help make driving pleasant, with a minimum of fatigue. Thus drivers can concentrate completely on traffic while behind the wheel. Many of these systems have been developed and brought to the production stage by Bosch. Therefore, this technical reference book provides the reader with a firsthand, comprehensive description of these significant components of automotive technology. The texts are complemented by numerous detailed drawings and illustrations. The target groups: Motor vehicle technicians in education and vocational training. Master mechanics and technicians in garage workshops. Teachers and lecturers in vocational schools. Students at universities and technical colleges and all those interested in automotive engineering.
