VEHICLE AIR CONDITIONER CONTROL SYSTEM AND NON-TRANSITORY RECORDING MEDIUM STORING VEHICLE AIR CONDITIONER CONTROL PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17981612 titled 'VEHICLE AIR CONDITIONER CONTROL SYSTEM AND NON-TRANSITORY RECORDING MEDIUM STORING VEHICLE AIR CONDITIONER CONTROL PROGRAM
Simplified Explanation
The abstract of the patent application states that in a specific section of a road where autonomous driving is switched to manual driving, the air conditioner control system is configured to prevent the cutting of power to the air conditioner.
- The patent application focuses on the interaction between the autonomous driving system and the air conditioner control system in a specific section of the road.
- The invention aims to ensure that the air conditioner remains operational when the driving mode switches from autonomous to manual.
- The technology prevents the air conditioner power cutting control, which could potentially disrupt the comfort and safety of the driver and passengers.
- The patent application suggests the use of an air conditioner ECU or controller to implement this functionality.
Potential Applications
- Autonomous vehicles with air conditioning systems.
- Road sections where autonomous driving is switched to manual driving.
Problems Solved
- Ensures uninterrupted operation of the air conditioner during the transition from autonomous to manual driving.
- Improves the comfort and safety of the driver and passengers.
Benefits
- Maintains a comfortable temperature inside the vehicle during the driving mode switch.
- Prevents potential discomfort or health issues caused by sudden changes in temperature.
- Enhances the overall driving experience for the driver and passengers.
Original Abstract Submitted
In a driving switching preparing section of a road wherein autonomous driving performed by an autonomous driving ECU or autonomous driving controller is switched to manual driving performed by a driver, an air conditioner ECU or an air conditioner controller is configured to prohibit air conditioner power cutting control.
