Abstract
A frequency sensing system for a vehicle includes a shock absorber. The shock absorber has a frequency sensor configured to generate signals indicative of a shock frequency. The frequency sensing system includes a transmitter. The frequency sensing system includes an output device. The output device has a receiver for receiving the signals indicative of a shock frequency from the transmitter. One of the shock absorber and the output device is configured to compare the signals indicative of a shock frequency with a target frequency range. Further, the output device displays a notification when the shock frequency is outside of the target frequency range.
Claims12
A shock absorber for a vehicle comprising:
- a shock frequency sensor configured to generate signals indicative of a shock frequency;
- a controller communicably coupled with the shock frequency sensor, the controller configured to:
- receive the signals indicative of the shock frequency from the shock frequency sensor;
- compare the received signals with a target frequency range;
- and
- adjust at least one operational parameter of the vehicle to reduce occurrence of the shock frequency outside of the target frequency range.
A method of controlling a shock absorber for a vehicle, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a controller, signals indicative of a shock frequency from a shock frequency sensor;
- comparing, by the controller, the received signals with a target shock frequency range;
- and
- adjusting, by the controller, at least one operational parameter of the vehicle to prevent occurrence of the shock frequency outside of the target shock frequency range if the shock frequency is outside of the target shock frequency range.
