Course objective

This module introduces the principles and functionality of active systems in modern vehicles.
After successfully completing the course, students will be able to:

  • Explain how driver assistance systems work in terms of longitudinal, lateral, and vertical vehicle dynamics,
  • Choose suitable sensor and actuator concepts for specific driving tasks,
  • Apply the fundamentals of prototyping driving functions.

Course content

  • Mechatronics in Automobiles
  • Hands-on Experiments with Production Vehicles
  • Diesel Engine Management
