CityCarControl : an electric vehicle drive-by-wire solution for distributed steering, braking and throttle control
In this paper, we propose CityCarControl, a system to manage the steering, braking, and throttle of a new class of intra-city electric vehicles. These vehicles have a focus on extreme light-weight and a small parking footprint. In order to maximize maneuverability within a city environment, we show …
