Abstract
Systems, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to reducing passenger motion sickness resulting from a pitch change of a vehicle as a navigated road changes slope. In one embodiment, a method includes detecting a slope in a road in front of a vehicle and detecting a motion sickness state of a passenger of the vehicle. The method includes, adjusting, based on the motion sickness state of the passenger, a pitch angle of the vehicle to offset a slope angle of the road. The pitch angle is adjusted by independently adjusting a rotational speed of different wheels of the vehicle to generate a difference between a front wheel rotational speed of the vehicle and a rear wheel rotational speed of the vehicle.
