Good point. I wonder if that could be detected and compensated for, though?

- brian-armstrong 8y agoAbsolutely. My brain tells me I'm hot, and my motor system activates to move my arm, which adjusts the climate controls, bringing the temperature back within tolerance. It's pretty sophisticated.
- jfoster 8y agoAlso could be done by the car's software thermostat determining how much resistance it is up against in keeping the car to a particular temperature and adjusting that way. Lots of resistance => Lots of sun hitting the vehicle => Set the temperature a bit lower.
- Fins 8y agoMy (2011) car manual claims that there is a sun sensor that is used to control climate system, so I would assume that yes, it can.
