SwRI developed a regenerative active suspension system for cars, trucks, buses, and military vehicles that significantly reduces the energy required for a hydraulic active suspension.

Combining the muscle of hydraulics with the flexible control of electronics, Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) provides optimal hydraulic control systems. Using commercially available hardware or custom-designed electronic circuit boards and hybrid circuits, engineers develop systems to meet performance requirements as well as radio frequency emissions and susceptibility requirements.
