Steer-by-Wire

Steering Technology That Enables Autonomous Driving

The goal of the project is the design, development and prototype production of the future driving system Steer-by-Wire, which will activate the fifth level autonomous diriving. With Steer-By-Wire the mechanical linkages between the steering wheel and the wheels are eliminated.

Steering angles are perceived by sensors and the wheels operate with the help of the engine connected to the steering gear.

Thanks to this, Steer-by-fire promptly takes controls of the drive in case of danger, keeps the vehicle on road and ensures a safe and comfortable drive.

What Makes Us Different from our Competitors

The first Steer-By-Wire system with a road approval will dominate the market.

With Steer-By-Wire, all the unnecessary mechanical connections between the steering wheel and the wheels of the vehicle are eliminated. Steering wheel position angle and rate of turn is measured by sensors and the wheels are and electrically controlled motors are used to change the direction of the wheels.

It can be easily integrated into any autonomous vehicle: Although many of these systems have an autonomous driving function, its integration is more complicated. In our design, the integration into the autonomous driving function will be easier.

None of our competitors develops their own Autosar software modules.

Normally, all other solutions use CAN network communication,While we use Flexray communication protocol which has high-speed, capacity and safety.
