Electric Assisted Steering system is an Electric System, which reduces the amount of steering effort by
directly applying the output from the electric motor to the steering system.In this system the mechanical link
between the steering wheel and road wheels of an automobile are replaced by a control system consisting of
sensors, actuators and controllers seem to offer great advantages such as enhanced system performance,
simplified construction, design flexibility etc.It offers greater vehicle safety by adapting variable steering
ratios to human needs, filtering drive train influences and even adjusting active steering torque in critical
situations. In addition, it can make cars even lighter and more fuel efficient when compared to those using
hydraulic steering systems. The central electronic elements of today’s steering systems are modern
microcontrollers
