Build rate and walk rate are also determined by steering force and the direction angle of steering force α k.
The direction angle of steering force (α k ) is defined as clockwise rotation angle from high side to the direction of steering force in the bottomhole plane.
For $200 per vehicle the cost of a Wi-Fi router, a microprocessor and a global positioning system chip cars will be able to continually share data about their location, speed, angle of steering wheel, acceleration or deceleration rate, even whether the air bags have gone off or the windshield wipers are on.
Based on the analyses, a new method which showed the information on the recommended timing and angles of steering control for driving along the recommended route, in addition to the recommended route shown on the in-vehicle display, was proposed and evaluated.
First, the actual kinematic steering angle, the angle projected onto the road plane to which the front assembly is rotated is a function of the steering angle and the steering axis angle: :\Delta = \delta \cos \left (\phi \right ) where \Delta\,\! is the kinematic steering angle, \delta\,\! is the steering angle, and \phi\,\! is the caster angle of the steering axis.
The resulting radius can be roughly approximated (within 2% of exact value) by: :r = \frac{w\cos \left (\theta \right )}{\delta \cos \left (\phi \right )} where r\,\! is the approximate radius, w\,\! is the wheelbase, \theta\,\! is the lean angle, \delta\,\! is the steering angle, and \phi\,\! is the caster angle of the steering axis.
The system uses sensors throughout the car to keep track of speed, direction, acceleration and the angle of the steering wheel.
Such systems are designed to detect when the front or rear of a vehicle is sliding in a direction contrary to what the angle of the steering wheel indicates.

The radius of the turn of an upright (not leaning) bike can be roughly approximated, for small steering angles, by: :r = \frac{w}{\delta \cos \left (\phi \right )} where r\,\! is the approximate radius, w\,\! is the wheelbase, \delta\,\! is the steer angle, and \phi\,\! is the caster angle of the steering axis.
