    Abstract :

    The papers presents some aspects regarding vehicle safety control system, namely keeping the laser distance telemetry brake distance. Anti-lock braking system (ABS) or anti-skid brake system is a car safety feature that allows the wheels of a motorized vehicle to maintain traction with the road surface, depending on the driver's controls, while braking, preventing wheel locking (stopping rotation), avoiding uncontrolled skidding. The system is based on a laser telemeter/rangefinder to retrieve information about the distance between the two vehicles. This distance is processed by the Arduino Uno plate to obtain a usable result in the other modules of the system. The laser telemeter chosen within the present paper work was chosen especially for its easy interface with the Arduino system. OSLRF-01 can calculate distances for targets up to 9 m in distance. In this area, an improvement of the system discussed within this paper would be to replace the laser telemeter with a more advanced laser telemetry module that can perform faster measurements, with very good precision and, of course, for objects place on larger distances.
