That Bose Ride system should be extended to the steering wheel and pedals too. It would eliminate harmful vibrations on the feet, legs, hands and arms.

it's extremely difficult (if not impossible) to use any suspension system for pedals, the hinge of the pedal cannot move, if it does then the pedal is not pressed as it should, one way would be to have an extremely light first part of the pedal travel (which doesn't actuate the control) which is used to "lock" the suspension and allow the pedal to be properly pressed. the problem is that this would defeat the purpose as it would not vibrate only when the drivers feet are not on it. i would say that it's probably easier and smarter to make it so the floor of the pedal box is suspended, not the pedal itself, after all, a driver's feet do not spend that much time on the pedals compared to how long they spend on the floor. the steering wheel might be able to be suspended but it's just easier to use some kind of rubberized material in the wheel itself to act as a dampener for vibrations.

@@itzFYEB Ever heard of drive-by-wire? The pedals don't need to be mechanically connected or linked to the chassis, and neither is the steering wheel. The Bose Ride could easily include a "shell" or frame consisting of the seat, the pedals, and the steering wheel. Especially 12 years later.

@@AlainHubert what does ride by wire have to do with anything, i didn't explain it cause it believed it was obvious: if the pedal hinge moves, you cannot apply force to it (especially not a mainly vertical force) as it will move and the input will be spoiled by the movement of the hinge.

@@itzFYEB The pedals can be part of the seat and be suspended by the Bose system too. They don't have to be mechanically linked to the truck anymore, but instead connected to a computer that will do the job of braking, accelerating and decluching (what is known as drive-by-wire).

@@AlainHubert that would be extremely complex and expensive system just to do a job that could be approximated by a rubber bushing that would cost cents and wouldn't require a complete redesign of the cab (which can only be done by a manufacturer and would probably require a separate homologation)

Lets start off by having two men of similar weight. Then make sure the guy with the conventional seat hasn't raised his seat to the max.

Bose system worked. Was too heavy and expensive thou. The company who bought just used the algorythm to theier seat stabilizers. Maybe in a near future we can see its comeback!

Nope, the focus is vibration. Vibration will tear you apart. I used to race Two Stroke road bikes. You cant feel your hands for about 40 min after.

This technology was designed from car suspension they made a Lexus do bunny hops its insane

I just saw the car suspension demo and they made the car hop using it. Does this mean this one can be used as an ejector seat?

how awesome are these in the market already ?? I need to get me some boss suspension like now!!!

i agree with Brian, also the plaid shirt shows movement against the steering wheel ,but the solid shirt does not. salesmanship a its best.

How much does it cost installed on 1 truck ?

Amazing with Bose

how can use air seat for pc ? for game

if your truck shakes like this demo, you should probably have your inspections done elsewhere or keep your truck on the pavement

Its a demonstration. The real uses are against the road imperfections

@redfueldlux I got on it. It's not bullshit. The guy on the bose seat is heavier, so that's why it's sitting lower. But honestly, it does too much of an improvement that your body is sitting still while your arms and legs are vibrating with the truck...that would take some time getting used to.

Hold the camera still!!!

Where the hell can I get that seat????

Glenn Fox In case someone else reads across this, I'm sure shocks that can completely stabilize the truck would make it reasonable to reduce weight from other shock absorption parts. The engine and drive train might even perform better and save fuel by not bouncing around so much or being inflicted by so much shock. You might even get away with lighter materials throughout that don't have to be built for it anymore.

Very interesting to think about, that's for sure

If your seat suspension maxes out at that height it must be some POS. I'm right around 6 feet, and if I max out my seat suspension, my feet are a foot 6-8 inches off the ground.

dg5876 You must have shorter legs and a longer torso. I'm also 6 feet and in a Freightliner Cascadia, Peterbilt 579, and Kenworth (forgot the model) my feet are never more than a half inch from the ground if raised at all. You can't tell me that every single one was shit.

Base too high,cuts circulation in your legs.Too firm,tailbone hurts after 6 hours of driving.

They no longer make seats.

if you look closely, you will see the fake steering wheel on the left is vibrating a lot more than the one on the right. It appears they have skewed the vibrating table to make their product look better.

i kinda feel the same way.... but the science behind it does make some sense

Both test subjects should be the same weight for a representative test. This is test is meaningless.
