A vehicle is provided having a brake pedal with a detectable travel position and apply force, an electronic braking system component, and a controller having a stored threshold braking force and an algorithm. The algorithm determines a first braking torque request corresponding to the apply force, and a second braking torque request corresponding to the travel position. The first request applies when the apply force is greater than the threshold, and the second request applies when it is not. A calculated third request transitions linearly to the second request when apply pressure drops below the threshold upon pedal release. A method is also provided that includes recording the apply force, travel position, and force and travel-based tables, comparing the apply force to the threshold, applying the braking system component using the force-based table when the apply force exceeds the threshold, and otherwise using a calculated braking torque and travel-based table.

1. A vehicle comprising: a brake pedal having a detectable travel position and a detectable apply force;a travel sensor configured to measure the detectable travel position;a force sensor configured to measure the detectable apply force;at least one electronic braking system component configured for braking the vehicle in response to at least one of the detectable travel position and the detectable apply force; anda controller in communication with the travel and force sensors, the controller having a stored threshold apply force, wherein the controller is configured to determine a first braking torque request from a force lookup table solely using the detectable apply force, a second braking torque request from a travel lookup table solely using the detectable travel position, and a third braking force request which selectively transitions from the first braking torque request to the second braking torque request using a linear data fitting operation that interpolates between the force lookup table and the travel lookup table;wherein the controller is further configured to apply the at least one electronic braking system component using: the first braking torque request solely from the force lookup table when a detected apply force measured by the force sensor is greater than the stored threshold apply force;the second braking torque request solely from the travel lookup table when the detected apply force is less than the stored threshold apply force; andthe third braking torque request only upon release of the brake pedal when the detected apply force drops below the threshold apply force to thereby linearly transition from the first braking torque request to the second braking torque request. 2. The vehicle of claim 1, wherein the controller is configured to switch to the second braking torque request from the third braking torque request only when the third braking torque request equals the second braking torque request, thereby smoothly transitioning between the first braking torque request and the second braking torque request. 3. The vehicle of claim 1, wherein the controller is configured to calculate a linearized curve between the first and the second braking torque requests using the linear data fitting operation, and selecting the third braking torque request from the linearized curve. 4. The vehicle of claim 1, wherein the controller is configured to detect a panic braking condition, and for applying the at least one braking component using one of the first and the second braking torque requests only when the panic braking condition has ceased. 5. A brake pedal transition method for use with a hybrid vehicle having at least one electronic braking system (EBS) component and a brake pedal, the method comprising: measuring and recording a braking apply force and a travel position of the brake pedal using respective force and travel sensors;separately accessing an apply force-based braking torque lookup table and a travel position-based braking torque lookup table, wherein the force-based braking torque lookup table corresponds to a first braking torque request based solely on a recorded braking apply force of the brake pedal, and the travel position-based torque lookup table corresponding to a second braking torque request based solely on a recorded travel position of the brake pedal;comparing the recorded braking apply force to a stored threshold braking apply force value of the force sensor;linearly interpolating, using a linear data fitting operation, a transition braking torque request which transitions from the force-based braking torque lookup table to the travel position-based torque lookup;applying the at least one EBS component using only the force-based lookup table when the applied braking force is greater than the threshold braking force value;applying the at least one EBS component using only the travel-based lookup table when the applied braking force is less than the threshold braking force value; andapplying the at least one EBS component using the interpolated transition braking torque request only upon a release of the brake pedal that causes the applied braking force to drop below the threshold braking force value. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein linearly interpolating a transition braking torque request which transitions from the force-based lookup table to the travel-based lookup table includes generating a linear torque transition curve between a torque value point selected from the force-based braking torque lookup table and a torque value point selected from the travel position-based braking torque lookup table. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein the linear data fitting operation is selected from the group consisting of least squares linearization and least absolute deviations. 8. A method of interpolating a driver-requested braking torque request in a vehicle having at least one electronic braking system (EBS) component with a detectable brake pedal apply force and a detectable brake pedal travel position, the method comprising: detecting the brake pedal apply force;calculating a first braking torque request using only the brake apply pedal force;detecting the brake pedal travel position;determining a second braking torque request using only the brake pedal travel position;saving the first braking torque request as a linearization entry point for transitioning linearly to the second brake torque request;setting a linearization exit point equal to the second braking torque request;applying the at least one EBS component using only the first braking torque request when the brake pedal apply force exceeds a calibrated minimum detected brake pedal apply force threshold;interpolating, using a linear data fitting operation, a third braking torque request between the linearization entry point and the linearization exit point; andapplying the at least one EBS component using the third braking torque request only when the detectable brake pedal force drops below a stored threshold value upon release of the brake pedal, and maintaining the third braking torque request until the third braking torque request equals the linearization exit point, thereafter applying the at least one EBS component using only the first braking torque request. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the linear data fitting operation is to generate a torque transition curve between the first braking torque request and the second braking torque request. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the linear data fitting operation is selected from the group consisting of least squares linearization and least absolute deviations.
