Climate That Follows the Sun
Summary
Automatically adjust climate as sunlight changes
How It Would Work
On a cool day, intense sunshine can make you feel hot even when the cabin air temperature barely changes. When a cloud covers the sun, the same cooling can suddenly feel excessive.
The proposed feature would use Tesla’s cameras to estimate changes in direct sunlight and shade. Combined with cabin and outside temperatures, sun direction, and vehicle orientation, those signals would help estimate the solar heat reaching passengers.
When sunshine returns, climate control would increase cooling to compensate. When clouds block it, cooling would ease off. Your selected temperature would stay the same; the system would adjust airflow and air temperature to maintain comfort.
