System benefits
In addition to reducing the need for wire harnesses and improving the distribution of computational power, this new architecture is more secure, upgradable, and scalable.
Centralized gateway
The Chassis and Safety Domain Controller is the gateway connecting the centralized gateway to local applications including the Electric Brake Booster, Electronic Stability Control, and Electric Parking Brakes. Moreover, it is easily upgradable to new applications coming in the Chassis and Safety Domain.
