Perhaps Oishi is referring to the adaptive nature of Skyhook. This, from an ancient bookmark is, imho, an elegant explanation:
The system starts with a central control unit for the suspension. This is integrated into the overall Maserati Stability Program (or MSP), and all software is custom programmed for the cars traction, stability, abs, etc.
This is connected to 6 main sensors that measure the car's movement - three vertical (two in the front, one in the rear), one longitudinal (centrally located), and two wheel acceleration sensors (in front).
The system connects to a small motor in each shock that varies it's valving.
When you pre-set the system in normal or sport, it pre-selects your shock to an appropriate valving. The system is programmed with anti-dive, anti-squat, and anti-roll algorithms. As the computer senses these movements, it changes the valving of appropriate shocks to counter-act the movements.
The shock it uses varies on situation, it will stiffen up rear shocks as the front dives, to slow the rear's rise, or the shocks on the inside of a hard corner.
