The patents have now been filed. Project Sound is very nearly ready for prime time, and it is nothing short of revolutionary.
The heart of the Bose suspension system is a linear electromagnetic motor installed at each wheel in a modified McPherson strut arrangement. When electricity is fed to wire coils inside, the motor expands and contracts so quickly and forcefully that it prevents pitch and roll during times when the car is driven hard, all the while maintaining passenger car isolation from the sort of wheel impacts that would typically slam your head to the ceiling. Anti-roll bars are no longer necessary. The bobbing-head dog for the parcel shelf is obsolete.
