EDFC5 utilizes jerk-reactive adjustment feature, which is developed as a part of industry-academia collaboration with Prof. Dai Watanabe of Shibaura Institute of Technology, successfully combining both sharp handling and comfortable ride, to automatically provide most desirable driving behavior for all drivers. AI (learning function) helps to realize suitable driving feel, without sense of discomfort, for all sorts of situations. In addition, EDFC5 employs new approach to control motors to reduce operating sound, to maintain quietness like cars' original parts/components. Controller screen uses VA panel, as opposed to HTN panel that previous items use, for more beautiful and easy-to-read display. Features: Jerk-Reactive Adjustment Quieter Motor noise then EDFC Pro Better Screen then EDFC Pro Lateral G-Actuated Adjustment Acquisition of Vehicle Speed Data, Unaffected by GPS Reception Conditions Added Control Functions Responding to Driver's Intention G+Speed Integrated Control Mode 3 Damping Force Adjustment Modes High-Response Wireless Control One-Dial Operation Starting Point for G-Actuated Adjustment Frequency of Return-to-Zero Operation Self-Diagnostic Function 262K Display You can adjust the color of the display, button and dial illumination. In addition to 4 default colors (white, green, amber and blue), the EDFC5 offers a spectrum of 262,000 colors to customize your controller unit. Manual Mode There is only one simple dial to set damping force to desired levels. Up to 10 presets are available to store and quickly recall preferred settings, according to the changes in situation. Lateral G-Actuated Automatic Adjustment Mode This mode enables automatic adjustment according to the changes in lateral (cornering) G-force. 2 separate modes available; "G-Arrange Mode" to adjust damping force when G-force reaches the preset value (max 10 memories) each time, and "G-Linear Mode" to adjust linearly according to the preset G-force values, automatically supplementing the values in between. Jerk-Reactive Adjustment by calculating jerk rate from changes in G-force detected, the system predicts how the vehicle will soon move and hence the adjustment can be made automatically at the very moment when the cornering, acceleration or deceleration starts. This makes it possible to strike a good balance between sharp handling and comfortable ride. For example, the damping force is adjusted to emphasize on ride comfort when running straight forward but that would make the vehicle slow to react when the steering is turned. With jerk-reactive adjustment, the damping force is adjusted immediately after starting to steer, to make it most suitable for the upcoming curve and to provide sharp handling. After that, adjusting the damping force back to comfort-oriented setting can provide smoother ride and handling, absorbing bumpiness while cornering.
