The Accelerator Force Feedback Pedal is an active accelerator with integrated electric motor which provides the driver with a haptic feedback when a traffic situation requires the driver to either take his foot slightly off the accelerator or in order to inform him to shift up a gear.

The Accelerator Force Feedback Pedal (AFFPTM): the accelerator that communicates with the driver.

As an additional benefit, AFFP^TM also warns in a hazardous situation and provides an immediate feedback to the foot of the driver, which the driver is more susceptible to than acoustic or visual warnings.

The AFFP^TM is integrated with a driver assistance system, and as a Human-Machine-Interface is a sensible addition when, due to inattentiveness, the primary measures for safety cannot be adequately complied with.
