OnGuardPLUS™ is a technology to assist drivers of trucks and buses. It is an emergency braking system to mitigate a collision with vehicles ahead. The system provides full autonomous braking on moving and stopping objects, and warning and extended brake assist on stationary objects. OnGuardPLUS™ extends the functions of WABCO’s OnGuard™ system.
