A braking system for vehicles has a pilot pump with a manual actuation device, which is fluidically connected to an absorber device which simulates the driving resistance offered by at least one braking device. The system has at least one control unit operatively connected to at least one sensor and to the manual actuator device and is programmed to actuate the braking device via the actuator device when it receives from the sensors a braking action request signal. The control unit is programmed so as to correct the braking action requested by the user, actuating the manual actuator device so as to avoid blocking of one or more wheels or the occurrence of instability of the vehicle during braking. The control unit is programmed to induce on the manual actuation device at least one vibration when it corrects the braking action requested by the user.

A method and device for detecting and providing braking assessment information indicative of a particulate emission from a vehicle braking system involves determining, upon a braking event, one or more physical quantities related to the particulate emission caused by the braking event based on detection of at least one physical quantity detected from the one or more physical quantities performed by respective detection means provided in the vehicle. The method and device may also include calculating, by an algorithm or mathematical assessment model, stored and executable in a computer, at least one braking assessment index, based on the one or more determined physical quantities. The braking assessment index being representative of a particulate emission amount by the vehicle braking system upon the braking event, and providing a user with braking assessment information related to the calculated braking assessment index, by a user interface.

A system for monitoring a brake disc of a braking system of a vehicle may have at least one source of an electromagnetic quantity having a set space-time pattern such as to interact with the brake disc in a manner dependent on the properties of the brake disc generating a respective variable signal. At least one sensor for detecting such variable signal may also be provided. The at least one detection sensor may face a set limited portion of an investigation surface of the brake disc. The set limited portion of the investigation surface being at least one set closed path that can be defined on the investigation surface of the brake disc. The detected variable signal being able to be analysed to determine at least one parameter of the brake disc based on a deviation of the time pattern of the detected variable signal with respect to a set reference time pattern.
