The next development steps were electric power steering (EPS, 1996)
and active front steering (AFS, 2003). These mechatronic systems
served mainly to increase safety and comfort and required many new
sensors with electrical outputs, actuators with electrical inputs, and
microcontroller-based electronic control units. Because they support
the driver in performing driving maneuvers, they are driver-assistance
systems.
