 INTRODUCTION
Emerging technology in the automobile
environment.
Replaces the traditional mechanical control system
by the modern electronic control systems.
System reduces number of moving parts.
Intermediate shafts pumps , hoses , belts , coolers
and master cylinders are eliminated.
Drive by wire system can be called as a computer
network with a car wrapped around it.

 HISTORY
In 1995 BMW manufactures began working on the project
Z 22 to change carbon fibre structure to drive by wire .

1998-aircraft technology using computerised joystick .

2002-HY WIRE car by general motors .

2009-Wire de assault systems solid works releases .

In 2010 the technology introduces sensors for the paddle

 WORKING PRINCIPLE OF DRIVE BY WIRE
Drive by wire works on the electro-mechanical control system.
Main controlling system is ECM or ENGINE CONTROL MODULE
SENSORS send signals to ECM and ACTUATOR actuates.
ECM is connected to several systems.
ECM controls the signal and circulates the signal to suitable system.

ECM

DRIVE BY WIRE CAN BE SUB DIVIDED INTO:-
STEER BY WIRE
THROTTLE BY WIRE
BRAKE BY WIRE

7
STEER BY WIRE:-

8
No direct mechanical connection between the steering wheel and the wheel of
vehicle.
Angle of the steering rod is sensed by the sensor
ECM receives the signal of the sensor
Environmental sensors analyse environmental factors like yaw , roll over
position.
Using all these inputs tiers are actuated using steering sensors and actuators

Advantages of steer by wire:-

interior styling is more versatile due to absence of steering column.
There is more space available in the engine compartment.
Driving characteristics can be monitored and the steering response can be easily
adjusted.

9
THROTTLE BY WIRE:-

10
Automotive technology that is widely used today on vehicle replaces
the traditional throttle linkage by cables.
Accelerator sensor senses the position of the accelerator paddle
ECM actuates the servo pump which actuates the butterfly valve by
electronically operated throttle .
Position of throttle is continuously monitored by the ECM .
Information is send to the ECM by using a feed back circuit.

11
 ADVANTAGES OF THROTTLE BY WIRE :-
IT helps in controlling the air fuel ratio ,Fuel consumption
The ETC is also working 'behind the scenes' to dramatically
improve the ease with which the driver can execute gear
changes and deal with the dramatic torque changes associated
with rapid accelerations and decelerations.
It helps in maintaining the stability of a vehicle

12
BRAKE BY WIRE:-

13
 Eliminates traditional mechanical and hydraulic components .

Replaces them with electronic sensors and actuators to control the brakes in the
vehicle

Consists of a rheostat that senses the position of the brake paddle

 ADVANTAGES OF BRAKE BY WIRE:-
Reacts more quickly resulting in shorter stopping distance and time .
Loss of mechanical systems results in noiseless operation and
elimination of vibration
Lesser space consumed making the engine compartment and compact
and helping in better space utilization
Allows the ECM to integrate torque management with cruise control,
traction control and stability control
Reduces the weight of the overall system thus improving fuel efficiency
Lack of mechanical power may facilitate the need the introduction of
hybrid and fuel cells based vehicles

15
WHY TO ADOPT DRIVE BYWIRETECHNOLOGY :-
Interior designing , styling is more styling and versitile
More space availability in the engine compartment .
Simplifies design and lowers the manufacturing costs .

16
System can be modeled and easily instaled .
Elimination of vibrations .
Noiseless operations.

Reduces the weight of overall system .

Improves fuel efficiency .

17
Steering responce can be easily adjusted .
Reacts more quickly resulting in shorter stopping distance and time .

18
 FUTURE OF DRIVE BY WIRE TECHNOLOGY:-
It has been suggested that Drive by Wire might allow a car to
become completely separate from its controls, meaning that a
car of the future might theoretically be controlled by any
number of different control systems: push buttons, joysticks,
steering wheels, or even voice commands - whatever device
that designers could come up with.
