I’ve heard steer by wire can have faster feedback than pure mechanical systems. Even a mechanical steering has lag in cogs and there is never 100% stiffness in the steering column, etc.
- tsimionescu 7y agoI think the poster above wasn't talkng about input lag, but about the fact that the steering wheel acts as both input and output - you control the car through it, but you also get back information on the state of the car on the ad. If your motion was simply interpreted by computer, you would lose that information; so you in fact need a two way system, that reads your inputs and controls the car, but also reads the state of the car on the road and conveys that information to you. Sort of like how gaming driving peripherals added force feedback to make the controls more intuitive.
- Jamwinner 7y agoThis is untrue. I have also tested throttle by wire systems and found more lag. The auto industry needs it for emissions and markets it as better, it is not.
