Variable camber steering system

Variable camber.jpg

A variable camber steering system allows adjusting the camber on the fly, while operating the vehicle, especially during turns to improve handling. OnCamber, LLC, has developed one example of this system which uses a computer to ensure the camber angle set is correct for whatever direction the car is traveling. The system leans the wheels into the turn, similar to a motorcycle.

Camber angles differ depending on a variety of factors and are always a compromise of sorts. Most notable are adjustments made for circle track racers, for instance, always turning one direction the camber angles are optimised for left turns. If changing the angle makes a car better able to turn left or right, it makes sense that fixed angles are never right except in one spot and a trade off everywhere else.

That is the thinking behind the system designed by OnCamber. Their Acura RSX-S has logged over 100 hours of track time at Infineon Raceway and the speeds and lateral g forces are consistently higher with the variable system than without it. Variable camber maximizes the contact patch under acceleration, braking and turning and results in more even tire wear as well. It is particularly effective on front wheel drive cars.

Any information about production and release of the product is unknown as OnCamber’s website appears to be offline.
