Original Abstract Submitted

a system for dynamically managing individual suspension settings for a vehicle based on a determined suspension mode is provided. based on the user input and obtained sensor input, the system can then determine a suspension mode for a plurality of individually controllable components by specifying values or commands for each controllable component. a first mode may correspond to a lowering of the plurality of controllable. a second mode may correspond to lowering two controllable components corresponding to the rear wheels of the vehicle and raising two controllable components corresponding to front wheels of the vehicle. a third mode may correspond to a lowering of the plurality of controllable components to effectively drop the height of the vehicle to a threshold point. the system may further implement various validation processes that can validate the determined suspension mode and make further adjustment to individual controllable portions based on load or ground measurements.
