New Braking Technology

Below is an atricle that will revolutionize braking as we know it. As most of you know electronics are taking over cars nowadays. And the new Flexray technology incorporated in BMWs upcoming cars, is giving us speeds 20x faster (10MPBS realtime) than the old CAN data transmission system before (500KBPS realtime)

With that said, Flexray has opened doors to all kinds of new gizmos that our cars will now be capable of controlling thanks to a faster more reliable DTS, inluding hopefully the brakes you are about to read about.

60ft. 60-0 MPH Stopping times anyone?

Enjoy,
