Does the design of conventional or adaptive cruise control systems differ between different makes of car?

Question:
I need to know whether cruise control systems are exactly the same in all vehicles or whether there are minor differences in design between vehicle makes or between types of vehicle (car, bus, lorry, van etc). I'm writing a report so any links to relevant websites/reports would be fantastic!

History: Speed control with a centrifugal governor was used in automobiles as early as the 1910s, notably by Peerless. Peerless advertised that their system would "maintain speed whether up hill or down". The technology was invented by James Watt and Matthew Boulton in 1788 for use in locomotives. It uses centrifugal force to adjust throttle position as the speed of the engine changes with different loads (e.g. when going up a hill).

Modern cruise control was invented in 1945 by the blind inventor and mechanical engineer Ralph Teetor. His idea was born out of the frustration of riding in a car driven by his lawyer, who kept speeding up and slowing down as he talked. The first car with Teetor's system was the Chrysler Corporation Imperial in 1958. This system calculated ground speed based on driveshaft rotations and used a solenoid to vary throttle position as needed.

If you are asking if you can take a cruise control out of a GM product, and then a Ford product, and then a Peterbilt, and lay them on the table, and find them identical: No. If you are asking do they all work on the same general idea, IE, monitor speed and maintain it, yes.
