  "textContent": "The apparatus has a brake pedal coupled to a brake position sensor generating a brake position signal. The pedal is connected to an actuator (33) for applying a variable brake feel force to the brake pedal. A forward detection apparatus detects the relative distance and speed to a target vehicle and transfers the generated signal to a controller modifying variable brake feel force in proportion to the brake position signal. An independent claim is also included for a method for providing enhanced braking for a vehicle.",
