Computers is the key to today vehicle’s deepest secrets. The Controller Area Network, or CAN, is incredibly complex, but here’s what drivers should know about how it keep your car’s components connected. The CAN bus network allows data from all the sensors and computers to circulate around the car at all times.

All cars manufactured today contain at least one computer/electric circuit. It is in charge of monitoring engine emissions and adjusting the engine to keep emissions as low as possible. The computer receives information from a many different sensors,

· The oxygen sensor

· Fuel Sensor

· Engine inside,outside temperature

· ECO INDICATOR sensor

· The air pressure sensor

Getting information from these sensors computer will execute they task inside the car. For example speed sensor control vehicle Gear in Automatic transmission vehicles and manually speed limit fixing system these all are controlled inbuilt computer in cars.

Expensive Cars contain several computers diagnostic computers records any problems or irregularities in overall vehicle performance. Convenience Computers it is for dashboard controls and output to users GPS navigation, hands-free cell phone links, and displays for trip data such as fuel economy and range. Safety Computers this computers for Anti-lock brake system, Airbag control and I talked bottom of page some safety features control by safety computer. Performance Computers Hybrid-vehicles, Electric vehicles contain high performance computers. Other vehicles contains Gear controllers engine sensor controllers performance computers.

Computer Programs are in cars and control and monitor the cars.

In car body designers using some software tools for designing for a example ZBrush, Bunk speed these are useful software tools for 3D Sketches and visualization software and services for design cars body.Inside a car developers used C,C++,Python OpenCV these languages are use to make diagnostic, performance, safety, convenience computers and entertainment parts are using android and linux operationg systems.

These Modern world how much we have positive things that range we have negative things also because modern cars are have number of features for a example we use remote control to lock and unlock car but hackers use some technics to they can easily enter to the cars without the keys(remotes) and they can steal some valuable things inside a car sometimes they can steal that cars also. Another problem in modern car Sometimes there is a any electrical or technical failure in cars it will take a lot of cost to repair the vehicle. In long traveling time it seems any failure it major problem for drivers.

Today world road accidents also increasing rapidly so automobile engineers made cars human protectable ways to decreasing the accidents.These are some safety features cars having :-

ABS WITH BRAKE, ASSISTVEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL , ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCE DISTRIBUTION,TRACTION CONTROL, HILL START ASSIST CONTROL ,HIGH MOUNT STOP LAMP LED,AUTO HEAD LAMPS

This features are automated system so today modern cars save’s thousands of human life's day to day.

So if you having modern cars you have to use very careful and you have to know about what are the features that car has contain and you need to know how to use it. Another main thing is service the car regularly at particular time period.
