Abstract: A method for detecting and providing information representative of particulate emissions of a braking system of a vehicle involves acquiring, by a portable electronic device, identification data of the vehicle entered by a driver, acquiring, by a plurality of sensors, driving data of the vehicle, storing in a memory module, by a data processing module, the acquired driving data as a first time series of points, sending to a remote computer the driving data, and performing a first processing of the received driving data to determine a representation of the driving data as a second time series of points. The method further involves determining a value of a first physical magnitude and a value of a second physical magnitude of the braking system, determining one or more values representative of the particulate emission and providing the driver with the determined one or more values representative of the particulate emission.
