    摘要: An apparatus and a method for measuring interior temperature of a vehicle, the apparatus includes a base substrate provided inside an interior panel of the vehicle and a housing including an infrared ray blocking material for inhibiting temperature of an inner space from being increased. The housing includes an exposed part provided in one side of the housing and exposed to an interior space of the vehicle, and an opening on a side portion of the exposed part for allowing the inner space of the housing to communicate with the interior space through the opening. The apparatus further includes a non-contact sensor provided on the inner space of the housing for measuring temperatures of the exposed part and the opening, and a controller calculating temperature of the interior space of the vehicle with the measured values by the non-contact sensor.

    摘要: A smart glass transmittance control system includes: a smart glass that decreases transmittance of the smart glass in response to the quantity of light introduced and increases the transmittance of the smart glass when electric power is applied; a power supply unit to supply the electric power to the smart glass; a control unit to control supply of the electric power from the power supply unit to the smart glass in order to control the transmittance of the smart glass according to a user request. In particular, the control unit controls the supply of the electric power from the power supply unit to the smart glass based on the driving environment of a vehicle, the quantity of light from an external light source, or the driving environment condition of the smart glass.

    摘要: A heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system of a vehicle increases air-conditioning efficiency by inhibiting a waste of cooling/heating energy by individually performing air-conditioning for seats, depending on whether there are passengers sitting in the seats and then increases the range of an electric vehicle due to the increase in air-conditioning efficiency.
