Zusammenfassung:A method is described for detecting and measuring a braking force and/or a braking torque BF/BT deriving from the actuation of a vehicle braking system 1000, by means of detection performed in at least one brake caliper 10 of the braking system. The method comprises the steps of incorporating at least one deformation and/or strain sensor 2, at a respective position, in a portion of material M of the body of the brake caliper 10, susceptible to deformation due to a reaction force which is applied onto the brake caliper at the braking force and/or torque BF/BT, so that the deformation and/or strain S acting locally in the position, in which the deformation and/or strain sensor 2 is located, is representative of the braking force and/or braking torque BF/BT. The deformation and/or strain sensor 2 is a fiber-optic strain sensor 2 of the fiber Bragg grating type. The method then comprises the step of detecting, by means of the fiber-optic strain sensor 2, the local deformation and/or strain S acting in the respect
