Abstract

A vehicle suspension control system includes a controller configured to receive recorded information related to a location and severity of a surface irregularity to be traversed by a vehicle, determine a desired damping force based on the information, and send a damper adjustment signal based on the desired damping force. The vehicle suspension control system further includes an adjustable damper configured to adjust a damping force of the vehicle suspension system in response to the damper adjustment signal. Methods include controlling vehicle suspension systems and gather information related to irregularities in a surface.
