The Electronic Stability Program (ESP) was co-developed by Bosch and Mercedes-Benz and is now one of the most well spread active safety systems in the world. Even though it uses different names, depending on the car manufacturer, all ESP systems work basically the same. First, a central ECU gathers information from several sensors, including the ABS wheel sensors, a steering angle sensor, yaw rate sensor and lateral acceleration sensor.
Then, using this information the microprocessor calculates if the vehicle has started engaging in oversteer or understeer. If that is the case, the ECU automatically brakes each wheel individually in order to stabilize the vehicle. In other words ESP reacts only after a vehicle has started to skid/drift and tries to counteract the movement.
