Abstract
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.
