I propose to design and test a steer-by-wire system will demonstrate that the physical connection between the steering wheel and the wheels of a car which can be eliminated in favor of a more robust system that allows for easy modifications. The system will mimic regular power steering and the driver will feel no difficulty in adjusting to the new system and yet will benefit from the many advantages of the system. Today’s automobiles benefit more and more from the vast applications of electronic systems. The integration of a steer-by-wire system can enhance these systems notably to a wide range. In particular, the handling and the safety of the cars can be improved significantly. Since a steer-by-wire system is easily modifiable, different drivers will be able to adjust the system to accommodate their styles and this will enhance easy handling. In addition, disabled people and the elderly will benefit immensely from steer-by-wire because they will be able to situate the steering wheel to meet special needs. Traction control systems are very closely tied with driving safety and they can be enhanced with steer-by-wire vastly [3]. For instance, if the car starts sliding and the driver loses control of the car, driven off the steering into the wrong side, the system could interfere and take over controls. Very sudden changes in steering could also be avoided with such a system. Since there are virtually no physical connections between the steering wheel and the wheels, a steer-by-wire system can be implemented on different cars easily. The steering wheel could be placed on either side of a car (or anywhere else). Both of these improvements would reduce costs of production and allow a wider range of designs eminently.
