Description

The PASS system is an innovative mobility subsystem that combines a terrain preview sensor suite, a processor and simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) algorithm, and semi-active or active suspension into a single system that is capable of viewing the terrain ahead of the vehicle, determining the best suspension capabilities for the vehicle to cross that terrain, and then modifying the suspension characteristics to provide the optimal capabilities, all while on the move.
