This citation summarizes a one-page announcement of technology available for utilization. A portable ride-quality meter measures passenger discomfort and the acceptability of vehicle interior noise and vibration. The meter is especially suited for determining vehicle comfort and design tradeoffs and for comparing the ride quality of vehicles. The ride-meter output is in terms of discomfort units, which directly relate to passenger subjective acceptance of the measured environment. ...FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Contact: Technology Transfer Div.,P.O. Box 8757, BWI Airport, MD 21240. Refer to LAR-12882. Inquiries concerning nonexclusive or exclusive license for its commercial development should be addressed to the Patent Counsel, Langley Research Center, Hampton, VA 23665.
