An obstacle avoidance system 100 which incorporates active suspensions 130 is provided. The obstacle avoidance system 100 uses one or more active suspensions 130 to lift or jump one or more corresponding wheels over an obstacle in the vehicles path to avoid contact with the obstacle when the vehicle cannot practically drive over, steer around, or stop before hitting the obstacle. The obstacle is detected by a series of external sensors 120 which provide data via input signals to a controller 110 which then, via a processor 112 and memory 114 instructs 116 the active suspensions 130 to lift a corresponding wheel to avoid contacting the obstacle.
