ECUs (Electronic Control Units)
Electronic Control Units (ECUs) are specialized computers within a vehicle that manage and coordinate different systems like the engine, brakes, air conditioning, and airbags. They process sensor data and send commands to ensure optimal operation, safety, and efficiency. Think of them as the vehicle’s nervous system, enabling various components to communicate and work together seamlessly. Modern cars often have multiple ECUs working in unison, all designed to improve performance, safety, and comfort.
