1. An electric motor actuator for a brake system, comprising:

  • a housing comprising an outer surface, and having a first length along a first housing axis, a second length along a second housing axis orthogonal to the first housing axis, and a third length along a third housing axis, orthogonal to the first housing axis and the second housing axis, the electric motor actuator configured to couple to a pressure generating device of the brake system to receive tensioning along the first housing axis by the brake system;

    a first strain gage installed on the outer surface of the housing; and

    a second strain gage installed on the outer surface of the housing, wherein the first strain gage is installed on the outer surface of the housing 180°

    degrees from the second strain gage, wherein the first strain gage and the second strain gage are configured to measure tensioning along the first housing axis imparted by the brake system.
