Abstract
A vehicle may include an active ride comfort tuning system that reactively and/or proactively alters a parameter of a system of the autonomous vehicle to mitigate or avoid interruptions to ride smoothness. For example, the comfort tuning system may alter a parameter of a drive system, suspension, and/or a trajectory cost function. The comfort tuning system may alter the parameter based at least in part on detecting and/or receiving a comfort indication, determined based on sensor data, user input, or the like.
