Abstract: With the breakthroughs in technology, improvisation with existing systems is not only more efficient than its ancestors, but it is also essential to be able to adapt to the next generation. This is now made possible by the interdisciplinary integration of technology. With respect to automotive brakes, conventional braking mechanisms cannot always reach their potential due to friction loss and wear of the brake shoe material, and the smoke is also inherently toxic due to the generation of heat. Therefore, this is the process of creating a more reliable and environmentally friendly braking system that works like ABS (Anti-Lock Braking System) built through a control unit.

This document describes the impact on electromagnetic braking systems and other traditional braking systems. The braking system must ensure the safety and comfort of the driver when driving the vehicle on the road. There are many types of traditional braking systems, including drum brakes, disc brakes, hydraulic brakes, and pneumatic brakes. This braking system creates high friction, causing thermal wear of the braking components and ultimately reducing the efficiency of the braking system. Therefore, an electromagnetic brake system is used. This is a method of braking efficiently with a high-power torque ratio and less friction. Most braking systems operate on the principle that kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy. This method has its own drawbacks and must be replaced with a more maintenance-free, more efficient braking system that reacts quickly, does not heat up. In this project, we propose a low friction braking system that utilizes the eddy current phenomenon. This phenomenon is controlled by Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction and Lenz's law. Eddy currents are generated by the relative movement between a metal or alloy conductor and a magnet.
