i-Dual Climate Control System (With navigation system)
This system automatically controls the temperature and the vent mode of the air direction to the driver and passenger's
side, depending on the angle of the sun, and the direction of the vehicle. It calculates i n f o r m a t i o n such as date, t i m e ,
longitude, and latitude f r o m the navigation system, as well as the radiant strength of the sun f r o m the sunlight sensor,
to determine the appropriate m o d e position and temperature to be directed to each side.
