VEHICLE DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS WITH CENTER OF GRAVITY COMPENSATION BASED ON CARGO INFORMATION
First Claim
1. A control system for a vehicle, the system comprising:
- a plurality of sensors configured to sense operating parameters of the vehicle;
an occupant restraint system configured to sense data about cargo located in the vehicle;
a controller configured to obtain the data about the cargo located in the vehicle and the operating parameters, determine a control adjustment to account for an impact of the cargo on the vehicle'"'"'s center of gravity based on the data about the cargo, and control the vehicle based on the control adjustment and the operating parameters.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer-readable medium containing instructions for controlling a vehicle. One system includes a plurality of sensors, an occupant restraint system, and a controller. The plurality of sensors are configured to sense operating parameters of the vehicle, and the occupant restraint system is configured to sense data about cargo located in the vehicle. The controller is configured to obtain the data about the cargo located in the vehicle, determine a control adjustment to account for an impact of the cargo on the vehicle'"'"'s center of gravity based on the data about the cargo, and control the vehicle based on the control adjustment.
