Abstract

A vehicle air spring system and methods for controlling vehicle stability using air springs is provided. The vehicle air spring system includes an arrangement of air springs, pressure sensors, one or more air sources, air lines, and air valves that are monitored and regulated by an air pressure and stability control system. The air pressure and stability control system can be configured to utilize pressure sensor data, vehicle driving sensor data, and vehicle stability data to regulate the air pressure of the air springs and stabilize the vehicle. Additionally, the air pressure and stability control system can proactively adjust the air pressure of the air springs in anticipation of a potentially destabilizing event.
