Title: Benjamin Kruse: Vehicle-Control and Road-Surface Detection Innovation
Introduction
Benjamin Kruse is an inventor associated with Sunbury, Ohio, and Astemo, Ltd. His work includes a patented method for detecting road-surface inclination and controlling a vehicle in response.
Latest Patents
Kruse is credited with 1 patent: “Road-surface inclined-state detection method and vehicle control method.” The invention evaluates vehicle behavior, including pitching that raises the front wheels relative to the rear wheels and compression of the rear suspensions. It counts how long specified vehicle conditions persist, then uses those count values to detect the inclination of the road surface. This detection can inform vehicle-control operations.
Career Highlights
The patent reflects Kruse’s work on vehicle-state sensing and control. By using suspension and pitching behavior to assess road inclination, the method offers a way to derive information about the road from the vehicle’s response.
Collaborations
Kruse is associated with Astemo, Ltd. His coworker, Michael Sadie, is also identified in the provided information.
Conclusion
Benjamin Kruse’s patent addresses road-surface inclination detection through vehicle-state measurements, connecting sensing and vehicle control in an automotive innovation.
