Cabin Unveils Patent-Pending “Cabin Cloud” Technology to Make Even the Bumpiest Roads Feel Smooth
Summary
Combining patent-pending software and hardware, Cabin Cloud mutes road turbulence and dramatically reduces vibration, enabling people to get a dreamy night’s sleep while on a moving vehicle.Led by Co-Founder and CTO, Tom Currier, the company began engineering a long-distance sleep mobility solution starting first with researching the effect of road vibration on the human body.Cabin soon uncovered that active suspension is the only innovation that can truly solve road turbulence and that the team needed to build completely new technology from the ground up as no existing solutions catered specifically to passenger sleep - until now.The patent-pending Cabin Cloud active suspension system was meticulously designed to work with low cost and off-the-shelf hardware and sensors so that it can be installed underneath each personal bed at an economically viable cost-basis.Using a combination of standard sensors and proprietary predictive control algorithms, Cabin Cloud actuates the below-the-berth motor with millisecond precision to achieve an average reduction in acceleration of 70-90% depending on the road.
