Abstract

Techniques for braking an autonomous vehicle include providing a pressurized fluid stream from a plurality of pressurized fluid sources to a plurality of pressure-controlled electronic braking assemblies; providing the pressurized fluid stream from a pressurized fluid control output of a first pressure-controlled electronic braking assembly directly to a pressurized fluid control input of a second pressure-controlled electronic braking assembly; providing the pressurized fluid stream from the second pressure-controlled electronic braking assembly to at least one vehicle brake set; providing sensor output data from one or more vehicle sensors to a plurality of electronic control units; and based at least in part on the sensor output data, controlling at least one of the first or second pressure-controlled electronic braking assemblies to adjust a pressure of the pressurized fluid stream from at least one of the first or second pressure-controlled electronic braking assemblies to the vehicle brake set.
