Mechatronic approach in hydraulic braking system

Abstract

In present automotive sector there are magnificent transformations from mechanical to electrical with intensive changes. Each and every one is showing enthusiasm towards vehicles. In addition, humans are very much fascinated towards vehicles where they are driving faster than before. Many types of braking system have been introduced but this paper explains whether the brakes can be applied with less human effort by removing the solid linkage present in between pedal and master cylinder. In order to make the braking system economical and affordable, we are introducing a mechatronic technique which helps us in eliminating the solid linkage present in between the pedal which is linked to master cylinder, linking the pedal to linear potentiometer for the resistance. As the resistance starts varying, difference in braking will be observed. This technique helps in reducing manual effort. Working will be effective and efficient if the components are given more than recommended power supply.
