Look ahead vehicle suspension system

1. A vehicle configured to move along a roadway that has an upcoming roadway concern located in front of a front wheel of the vehicle, the vehicle comprising:

an independently adjustable suspension system;

at least one capture element configured to capture image data corresponding to the upcoming roadway concern; and

processing circuitry, based on current drive control function settings, the captured image data and vehicle motion data, is configured to:

determine whether to automatically adjust the independently adjustable suspension system to accommodate an encounter with the upcoming roadway concern,

determine whether to deliver for the driver an indication associated with the upcoming roadway concern, and

determine whether to automatically modify at least one of the current drive control function settings to avoid the upcoming roadway concern.

2. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the current drive control function settings comprises a front wheel angle.

3. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the current drive control function settings comprises at least one of a brake setting and an accelerator setting.

4. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the automatic modification comprises an override of a driver's current settings.

5. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the independently adjustable suspension system comprises a first suspension element associated with a first wheel and a second suspension element associated with a second wheel, and the automatic adjustment comprises adjusting the first suspension element and the second suspension element separately.

6. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry, based on the current drive control function settings, the captured image data and vehicle motion data, prepares to invoke a safety system to mitigate the encounter.

7. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry, based on the current drive control function settings, the captured image data and vehicle motion data, activates a safety system to mitigate the encounter.

8. A vehicle configured to move along a roadway that has an upcoming roadway concern located in front of the vehicle, the vehicle comprising:

an independently adjustable suspension system;

at least one capture element configured to capture image data corresponding to the roadway;

processing circuitry, based on current drive control function settings, the captured image data and vehicle motion data, is configured to both:

determine whether to automatically adjust the independently adjustable suspension system to adapt to the roadway, and

determine, based on the upcoming roadway concern, whether to automatically modify at least one of the current drive control function settings.

9. The vehicle of claim 8 , wherein the current drive control function settings comprises at least one of a front wheel angle, a braking setting and an acceleration setting.

10. The vehicle of claim 8 , wherein the automatic modification comprises an override modification of a driver's current settings.

11. The vehicle of claim 8 , wherein the independently adjustable suspension system comprises a first suspension element associated with a first wheel and a second suspension element associated with a second wheel, and the automatic adjustment comprises adjusting the first suspension element and the second suspension element separately.

12. The vehicle of claim 8 , wherein the processing circuitry, based on the current drive control function settings, the captured image data and vehicle motion data, prepares a safety system.

13. The vehicle of claim 8 , wherein the processing circuitry, based on the current drive control function settings, the captured image data and vehicle motion data, invokes a safety system.

14. A method performed by a vehicle that is configured to move along a roadway, the roadway having an upcoming roadway concern in front of the vehicle, the method comprising:

capturing first data, the first data comprises roadway image data located in front of the vehicle;

gathering second data, the second data comprises vehicle motion data;

accessing third data, the third data comprises current vehicle drive control function settings;

selectively adjusting an independently adjustable suspension system based on an analysis of the first data, second data, and third data; and

selectively modifying at least one of the current vehicle drive control function settings based on the analysis of the first data, second data, and third data.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the current drive control function settings comprises at least one of a front wheel angle, a braking setting and an acceleration setting.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the selective modification comprises an override of a driver's current settings.

17. The method of claim 14 , wherein the independently adjustable suspension system comprises a first suspension element associated with a first wheel and a second suspension element associated with a second wheel, and the selective adjustment comprises independently adjusting the first suspension element and the second suspension element differently.

18. The method of claim 14 , further comprising selectively invoking a safety procedure based on the analysis of the first data, second data, and third data.

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein the safety procedure comprises producing an indication for a driver.

20. The method of claim 18 , wherein the safety procedure comprises activating an air bag.
