1. An automated damping system comprising:
a damping device arranged and disposed to provide variable resistance to a load, the variable resistance providing resistance values corresponding to a displacement position of the damping device;
a suspension system for suspending the load, the suspension system including a plurality of cables suspending the load;
a damping profile generator that calculates a damping profile; and
a sensor arranged and disposed to measure one or more damping affecting properties and providing the one or more damping affecting properties to the damping profile generator, the sensor comprising a mass measuring device;
wherein the damping profile provides the variable resistance based upon the one or more damping affecting properties of the load.
