Abstract
Systems and methods for controlling movement of an active payload support system. In one example, a seat system for a vehicle includes a seat, a support structure coupled to the seat and including an actuator configured to move the seat at a command angle relative to a floor of the vehicle responsive to movement of the vehicle, at least one sensor positioned to detect movement of the vehicle, and a controller configured to receive a signal from the at least one sensor, generate a command signal to instruct the actuator to move the seat relative to a floor of the vehicle, determine whether the command signal will cause the seat to exceed a limit, scale the command signal to conform to movement of the vehicle within the limit, and provide a force command to the actuator to move the seat based on the scaled command signal.
