    Automotive Can sensors on a car measure deceleration for a predictive braking system?

    Additionally ... Can I use an existing WSS for a second purpose? IOW, can I simply tap into it and read the voltage without affecting that voltage or would I have to install my own WSS? I assume I could use an existing sensor, but I figured I would ask.

    Automotive Can sensors on a car measure deceleration for a predictive braking system?

    Keep those links coming. That post really helped me by identifying what sensor to search for ... I was THAT far behind the 8-ball that I didn't even know where to start searching. If anyone has any other informational articles on the CAB (controller antilock break) referenced in that link...

    Automotive Can sensors on a car measure deceleration for a predictive braking system?

    That's a great start, knowing how the measurement is made. I guess at that point i would have to determine thresholds as to what is slower decelleration and what is rapid decelleration. I was really hoping to find data after it is processed by the on board computer that may already have...

    Automotive Can sensors on a car measure deceleration for a predictive braking system?

    I've got an idea for a predictive type of braking system. The general theory is great, however I am not a Mechanical Engineer at all ... just an idea incubator :-p Anyway ... my idea requires the use of deceleration of the vehicle. Are there typically sensors already on the car that...

    Network Troubleshoot: 13-Node LAN with Win 98

    One Thought Sooooo not trying to be a PITA and unhelpful, but the reality of Win98 is that it does not network very well. Mapped share drives disappearing, shared printers not working and general network access issues plague Win98. The OS is now 6+ years old. Have you considered...

    Using IP Voice Service for Affordable Calls

    www.skype.net Featured in Fortune Magazine, the creators of KaZaA have landline phone companies scared they may take over telecom with "computer to computer" VOIP whose quality is as good as a landline and as easy to use as an IM client. Is it so bad to talk from the computer? Sound...
