Active cambering system controlled by input derived from an electronically controlled limited-slip differential

A vehicle control system, comprising:

• a control unit configured to receive data from a plurality of sensors which monitors a torque-vectoring system mounted to a vehicle and detects road conditions;
• a prediction module executed by a processor to predict, based on a torque-vectoring system data and road condition data received by the control unit, a wheel alignment adjustment for the road conditions that the vehicle approaches and encounters along a road and generate a control signal based on the predicted wheel alignment adjustment;
• and
• a wheel alignment adjustment mechanism connected to at least one wheel mounted to the vehicle for automatically adjusting wheel alignment for the at least one wheel in response to the control signal such that at least one of a camber angle, a toe angle, and a caster angle for the at least one wheel is adjusted as the vehicle travels across varying road conditions.

A method for controlling wheel alignment adjustments of a vehicle, comprising:

• receiving at a control unit data from a plurality of sensors which monitors an electronic limited slip differential mounted to a vehicle and detects road conditions;
• predicting using a prediction module, based on electronic limited slip differential data and road condition data received by the control unit, a wheel alignment adjustment for the road conditions that the vehicle approaches and encounters along a road and generating a control signal based on the predicted wheel alignment adjustment;
• and
• automatically adjusting, using a wheel alignment adjustment mechanism, wheel alignment for at least one wheel mounted to the vehicle in response to the control signal such that at least one of a camber angle, a toe angle, and a caster angle for the at least one wheel is adjusted as the vehicle travels across varying road conditions.
