Adaptive cruise control (ACC), a dynamic vehicle technology, automates speed and distance adjustment while driving. Imagine driving on a busy highway, where ACC effortlessly maintains a safe following distance from the car ahead, even in stop-and-go traffic.
ACC's relevance stems from its ability to reduce driver fatigue, enhance safety by preventing collisions, and improve fuel economy. Its origins can be traced back to the 1990s when automotive engineers first introduced adaptive speed control systems.
