Brembo Announces Sensify Enters Production Brembo, the global mobility innovation leader, announced that Sensify, the new standard in intelligent braking, has entered production for a global vehicle manufacturer. Sensify is fitted as standard on 100% of the vehicles in the program, confirming the platform's readiness for full industrial deployment. Designed as a scalable and adaptable solution, Sensify is engineered to support a wide range of advanced vehicle architectures, from next-generation driver assistance systems to fully autonomous applications, marking a key milestone in the evolution of braking toward a truly software-defined future. This milestone represents a significant step forward in the adoption of by-wire software-defined braking systems for safety-critical automotive applications. Sensify was born as a fluid-free architecture that distributes intelligence at wheel level, removing hydraulic circuits and centralized actuation. This innovative approach enables accurate and continuous modulation of braking forces, supporting stable and controlled vehicle behaviour in complex and highly variable driving conditions, enhancing peace of mind. As the market sees a growing wave of announcements around electromechanical braking technologies (EMB), Sensify stands apart with hardware and adaptable software layers. It naturally integrates into the software-defined vehicle paradigm, allowing manufacturers to deploy advanced functionalities across vehicle platforms while ensuring scalability, consistency and long-term value throughout the vehicle lifecycle. Following Sensify's entry into production for a global manufacturer, Brembo has also recently signed additional contracts with new customers. As a result, Brembo expects to equip hundreds of thousands of vehicles per year, paving the way for large-scale deployment of Sensify and reinforcing the company's ambition to help shape a Zero Accident Future.
