In fact, the purpose of the ABS design is to generate a series of pulses of maximum friction between the surfaces of both the wheel tires and the road during the deceleration of the car to reduce the stopping distance in half as well as increase the car's ability to turn with the least possible slippage on the road.
The pre-ABS technique was to pulse the brakes yourself. As they locked, release then brake again very quickly. This is what racing drivers do in non-ABS cars like, say, an F1 car. This works for those that have the training and experience to do it but most drivers don't so it's another safety feature built-into modern cars to make up for lack of driver skills.
That explains a lot. My brothers Honda he left me in high school with had that abs sign on. Thought nothing of it as I didn’t know anything about cars. I started driving and suddenly a pedestrian popped out of nowhere causing those in front of me to brake hard on a 35mph road. I start slowing down faster and immediately I am just sliding right into this truck. Thankfully the car had enough of the emergency brake for me to just barely prevent a collision. Sitting there with a cloud of burnt rubber thinking I need to take it in 😅
This shit saved my life and really, my insurance premiums! Traffic was traveling at 50 mph, sun directly in my direction, 8:00 am. I was in the right lane and for some reason, my lane was stopped , even though everyone else to my left was traveling just fine. When I saw how fast I was approaching the car in front, I immediately slammed on the brakes and in milliseconds calculated I was gonna hit anyway, so I swerved to the right towards the curb, then left again to avoid hitting the curb, and in the process heard and felt this sputtering noise. After the event, I took a cool minute to absorb what just happened, and then was left mostly impressed with how the car handled the process ... it was the ABS. I’m also assuming good tires also played a huge role, since I got brand spanking new tires about 6 months ago haha. Regardless, I love technology.
The video was made for Prius training back during the early days of that generation. We updated it for Corolla and Sequoia. I think people have posted the Corolla ones too.
In good driving, you shouldn't brake and turn. However, if you're at threshold braking (maximum possible braking you can do in the car), you have the option of turning the wheels to avoid an obstacle. Pre-ABS, you had to carefully modulate and pulse the brakes yourself to prevent locking the brakes and the average person would lock the brakes and lose steering (and lose braking because their brakes were locked and they were skidding).
@pav400 ....in a manual trans car, if you lose suddenly traction, on a slippery surface, you must forget about the brakes and beat your reflex to hit the brakes. I always use the engine + gearbox to save myself in dire situations on snow. My car is heavy infront , where the engine is, and the rear is very light.. so its a bit of a battle to maintain control on snow or ice. Either way i love a good challenge.
@Erniee7 Don't he a hater...I race cars and own two Priuses, they're great cars. But the answer is that these were produced for a Prius training program and were updated for different models.
Jesus thank god..... I had my brake pads changed literally today, went to work, roads froze up at night, snowed a tiny bit, i take off uphill, no problem with braking, but the first light touch of the brake on the level / declining road, i feel a grinding in the pedal and its resisting my push... scared the living shit out of me, i thought the pads were installed incorrectly or they fell off entirely... :D good to know my car has ABS... didn't think it did.
I thought ABS was bad and it was not in the newer cars...until I saw the abs logo pop up on my 2009 lancer and I got a little concerned...But this video cleared it all up
If the automotive suppliers could implement threshold braking and take into account changes in front wheel angle to allow for some steering by releasing the brakes at a logical ratio then we'd have Anti-Lock brakes. The current ABS should be re-named to intermittent lock brakes, as they do go into small skids between releases, limiting their effectiveness for short stoping distances. From what I've recently read, statistically there's been little change in the percentage of crashes pre to post ABS implementation.
Nowadays, the wheel speed sensors are used for so many safety and traction features, it's quite amazing. GM even has a mode where it senses if the car is airborne!
I added abs to my bike yesterday. Soon ill be adding headlights and turn signals all of these will be powered by a generator that generates energy from the wheels spinning
Wheel speed sensors detect if the wheel has stopped turning. If it has, they momentarily release the brake then grab it again rapidly so the wheel doesn’t lock up.
@allegroracing Im not hating Ive drove a Prius before its a smooth ride you cant feel it when youre going at 85 mph on the fwy but the design it horrible from outside. Inside you can make a lot of space in the back.
@MyDucatiGT1000 If the drag cars had automatic gearboxes then there would be no competition... only by the litres of the engines. Does your car have auto gearbox? If it does.. you've got a problem. I drive a manual trans car , servo steering... what to do expect from a 89' Czech car.. nothing. Yes.. the engine is small.. but on snow its unstable. So.. i got in a similiar situation, i just popped from 5th to 3rd gear , gentle breaking and i regained control.
Maybe stupid question but how much stress does ABS braking cause on the whole brake system? I mean I'd like to try it on an empty road at 100kph just to see how it feels, but maybe it's not intended for using often and/or when not necessary?
+Wiizl As long as your brakes are in good shape it won't cause any problems. It can be a good thing to test out in your car, but I wouldn't go out of my way to after getting the feel for it. :>
Considering it's designed to do what it does, I wouldn't imagine it would cause much wear. I sure as hell haven't noticed any, but I can tell you one thing - if you enjoy zipping aroundd curvy roads, ABS will save you tyres. So much tyres.
+Milos Cigoja No, this is how ABS works in a simplified way. "What ABS works" doesn't make any sense. Grab some inglerlish lessons before bothering with ABS.
Allows Braking Steering Should you call 911 in that situation? The road has hazardous condition someone could come around a bend or be driving in a new state.
I have antilock breaks and I almost got into an accident today because of them. My brake pedal locks up and it scares me. Is the brake supposed to lock up..??
yes it is meant to do that. The abs prevents you from getting too much pressure in the braking system And also it makes the pedal "shaking" a little bit due to pressure regulation. also you should not think that it nearly caused you an accident, the abs is almost always garrantying the best stopping distance ! but when you make a emergency braking, the stopping distance is always too long :)
hwell now I know how the hwheels hwill hwork with abs, good thing it was a hwhite background otherhwise this hwould be hard to see. Hwisconsin. Cool whip.
Exterminence ok i will try to rebemer that when i get my frist car right now im still studying the rule's of the road and what all the road signs mean im still doing the mock up test right now online.
Man forget that my ABS doesn't work right, I'd rather just rip the e-brake lock the back wheels and still turn around the rocks if I were in that scenario
ABS is nice and all but don't expect it to save you during icey situations at fair speeds.The only way to be sure is to drive slow and cautious I had ABS and slid right into a dumpster... i was going to fast. Don't be like me!
basically with a car equipped with it, the system will automatically pump the brakes for u(while your slamming on the brakes in a sudden stop situation) so that the wheel doesn't lock up. You'd feel the pedal sputtering thats the ABS in action
Keith johnson Everyone understands the concept. I talking about what the sensor actually is, how it detects slip, and how the feedback circuit is designed.
Mike Lentsch ok well u have the pressure modulator that first off detects when the drivers slam on the break pedal hard prevent wheel lock up (holding it down all the way that can result in break lock up) or like you said detects slip. Then the feedback circuit can be divided into hydraulic or electronic components.different solenoids accumulators and ABS control modules, brake pedal sensor, wheel speed sensor, pressure switch, main components that all work together to actually make the system a success. the ecu sends a 5volt reference signal to all sensors and get inputs from them all so once the pedal is slam on it send a signal to the main ECU that in turn says ok something isn't right, it then sends other signal back to the ABS module and other components that then try to correct the problem thus pumping the brakes. tried to explain it the best way i can hope it helped
electronics sensors on wheels=>computer=>electronically operated valves; valves stop braking; there is less braking, which might seem like something bad, but between braking too late and loosing control and braking too late and still being able to at least go around the obstacle, the second option is preferable; the program in the computer ensures the lowest possible braking distance; if you still crash, well, it was never going to be better; it also changes the braking of each wheel individually, which allows for more control;
This isnt exactly the reason for ABS, ABS is really just to stop a vehicle in a straight line. ESP (electronic stability program) is for steering around an object, by braking one wheel and the vehicle turning around the axis of the wheel itself.
daniel harris Incorrect ABS will still allow the vehicle to steer under heavy breaking the whole point of ABS is to negate wheel locking in ANY situation.. ESP is used to retain traction or to negate wheel spinning under power this is KEY as ALL ESP only control traction under power and nothing more... BOTH work in concert to give maximum traction and to in some cases allow for better steering (Heavy Intrusive ESP in AWD Cars).
For most drivers, unless they are trained to modulate the brake pedal in an emergency, they will lock up the brakes every time. Statistically ABS is safer though under some conditions it can extend the braking distance. It's not as much a characteristic of the road but of the car. It is required for all cars in the U.S., Canada and Europe.
hours of trying to Understand ABS, explained in less than a minute! Awesome! Thank you! ^_^ :)
Same here
+Krillain san haha search it on yahoo for tens of minutes still didnot get. search on youtube only 40secs
Same here
Joke: with ABS you can choose the tree you will crash into
Im dead haha

I have been figuring out the meaning of ABS for years and this 40 second video answered all my questions ha
ABS means Anti-lock Braking System (and nothing else)
Great vid. I've spent god knows how long researching ABS and you explained it in 46 seconds!!!!! THANK YOU

This was the easiest explanation I've ever gotten, and in less than a minute to, thank you sir, great video!!
now this is what I call a helpful / informative vid ... congrats to the uploader

So precise and succinct, 👍🏾
This video is dope. Amazing
This saved my ass today. I was amazed how much control i had of the vehicle.
Nice!! Short and understandable video👌💙💙💯

Watched it once and understand the fundamentals of ABS now. Success! Thx =]
God damn I finally understand, Allows Breaking and Steering, so simple yet so pedagogical. Beautifully put.

من اجمل الأمور العلمبة نشكركم كثيرا
Is there any more of these videos?
yes :) btw, the rear always lock when using an e-brake. if its drum or disk wont matter
I thought a huge metal chunk comes through the rotar and allows the wheel to keep rotating
@Erniee7 Don't he a hater...I race cars and own two Priuses, they're great cars. But the answer is that these were produced for a Prius training program and were updated for different models.
Can someone guide me on as to how such videos are made, the software's used, and other resources required ?
Jesus thank god..... I had my brake pads changed literally today, went to work, roads froze up at night, snowed a tiny bit, i take off uphill, no problem with braking, but the first light touch of the brake on the level / declining road, i feel a grinding in the pedal and its resisting my push... scared the living shit out of me, i thought the pads were installed incorrectly or they fell off entirely... :D good to know my car has ABS... didn't think it did.

Those sensors must be ridiculously capable and accurate to the millisecond to recognise and react to random emergency braking that fast!
Nowadays, the wheel speed sensors are used for so many safety and traction features, it's quite amazing. GM even has a mode where it senses if the car is airborne!
i love your vids man :D
Allow Breaking and Steering, thats as easy as it gets :P
Is there any minimum speed to actuating abs,or at any speed
I added abs to my bike yesterday. Soon ill be adding headlights and turn signals all of these will be powered by a generator that generates energy from the wheels spinning
The first scenario exactly happened to me today by the time I turned left it was already to late 😡
how bout the handbrake,a car with abs(frond and rear disc brakes ofcourse) you can still lock the rear tires with the handbrake?
Very helpful now I understand. But why use a Prius? I have those damn cars they look discuting looks like a freaking fish
Saw a portion of this in another video. Now I'm sitting here trying to figure out why the narrator's voice sounds so familiar. What is their name?
I can’t remember, it was 2008 when we did this but yes, I’ve heard him since in big productions.
@@ramblingadventures I'm almost positive it's Doug Lee. Listening to it again today, and yeah, that's definitely him.
now the questrion is how does it work
Wheel speed sensors detect if the wheel has stopped turning. If it has, they momentarily release the brake then grab it again rapidly so the wheel doesn’t lock up.
@@ramblingadventures Is that what you feel when you leave in a too high gear and the car comes to a stand with these little shocks?
Sir can I use your animation in my next vlog??..In courtesy I will mention your name..
@MyDucatiGT1000 Aswell as automatic transmission..
so before crashing can't the driver release the pedal to steer ..... as the car already had been slowed down much
@allegroracing Im not hating Ive drove a Prius before its a smooth ride you cant feel it when youre going at 85 mph on the fwy but the design it horrible from outside. Inside you can make a lot of space in the back.

why a prius??
WHY IS A PRIUS USED AS THE DEMO?!!??!?!!?
just to see who'd ask
Allows

Should you call 911 in that situation? The road has hazardous condition someone could come around a bend or be driving in a new state.
Why is "skitting" ineffective?
I have antilock breaks and I almost got into an accident today because of them.

Yes the brake pedal starts to shake, this is the effect of this pumping in the brakes that doesn't allow your brakes to lock up.
I got scared too the first time i used my dads truck with ABS :P lol

Zakkas
So I better comeback to the mechanic. My light ABS is showing, after he fix the wheel bearing.
I never knew this. I'll just stomp on the brakes.
and wat happens if abs dosent work wat do u do then do u just let yr car crush
+Eric Senack If your ABS doesn't work then you should've had it sorted beforehand. That's why servicing and yearly checks are important.
Exterminence ok i will try to rebemer that when i get my frist car right now im still studying the rule's of the road and what all the road signs mean im still doing the mock up test right now online.
Exterminence how mush dose it cost too get a yearly chack u7p on abs
your brakes will lock I have two cars one with abs the other without, and my brakes never locked on me although I have done it on purpose
how do u do on purpose
❤2019...☆KL 26☆
the selfish driver didn't remove those big rocks from road, it's very dangerous
i thought that you shouldn't brake and turn at the same time. i guess its because of no abs.
ABS = Anti Block System
or
Anti
Blocking
System
pov: ur here from drivers ed
Anyone here from initial d?
A Prius??? You gotta be fuckin kidding me.
lol.. then should it be ferrari?
Man forget that my ABS doesn't work right, I'd rather just rip the e-brake lock the back wheels and still turn around the rocks if I were in that scenario
Veels not hweels
PVP SAAAAAANNN!!!
its like you shouldn't go kill someone, but the cops are there just in case. same thing with abs
ABS is nice and all but don't expect it to save you during icey situations at fair speeds.The only way to be sure is to drive slow and cautious I had ABS and slid right into a dumpster... i was going to fast. Don't be like me!

Did you watch the video carefully? Look for the word "pulse".
electronics sensors on wheels=>computer=>electronically operated valves; valves stop braking; there is less braking, which might seem like something bad, but between braking too late and loosing control and braking too late and still being able to at least go around the obstacle, the second option is preferable; the program in the computer ensures the lowest possible braking distance; if you still crash, well, it was never going to be better; it also changes the braking of each wheel individually, which allows for more control;
I crashed my car several times just because of those pulses...

yes he right its for having control of the car mainly, as well as to prevent skidding
