A pioneer in active safety, Bosch developed the first production-ready Antilock Braking System (ABS) in 1978 and co-launched the first Electronic Stability Program (ESP) with Daimler-Benz in 1995. 

Formerly a direct supplier of ABS and ESP to Australian vehicle manufacturers, Bosch Australia continues to provide its expertise in ABS/ESP active safety software and application services for an extensive range of local and international OEMs as well as project management services for brake actuation and wheel speed sensor products. 

Bosch Australia also conducts verification testing of brake and ESP systems for vehicle OEMs and aftermarket modifiers, including Electronic stability control (ADR88 / FMVSS 126, Sine with Dwell), Brake systems for passenger cars (ADR31), and Brake assist system (ADR89) regulation testing.

More recently, Bosch Australia diversified into developing active safety products for the trailer and caravan market. It is now the global centre of competence for Bosch Trailer Safety Control.
