Benchmark Tesla! Ford tiżviluppa l-modalità tal-annimali domestiċi tal-karozzi

A patent application from Ford shows that Ford is developing a "vehicle control manager" that can remotely control the temperature, windows and music. Perhaps a boon for pet lovers, the software is thought to be inspired by Tesla's dog mode.

Fl-2018, Tesla bdiet toffri Dog Mode, li tiżgura li s-sewwieq iżomm l-annimali f'temperatura komda fil-karozza. Fis-snin ta’ wara, il-produtturi tal-karozzi għamlu spinta għall-ħbiberija tal-annimali domestiċi.

Ford's patent application, filed in 2018, was unveiled last week after a four-year design cycle that would allow a parked vehicle to lower one or more windows, adjust the temperature via a car key or a smartphone app. Level, open the sunroof or liftgate, recline or fold some seat backs. The pet button on the car's remote control can also be used to open the door to help pets get in and out of the car flexibly. The system also allows the car to play relaxing music for pets to enjoy. Ford explains in the patent that arranging a car's interior to meet your pet's needs can be a long and tedious task because you have to adjust each setting individually. During the process, your pet may become impatient and create extra stress when it comes to tidying up windows and climate control.

Tesla Dog Mode works like a Ford, but a bit more advanced. Dog Mode takes advantage of the inherent advantages of having an electric vehicle with a large battery, essentially operating as a small climate-controlled cabin for any waiting animals in the vehicle. Anyone who must leave their pet in the car can simply turn on the dog mode button on the car's climate control, and a large screen will display the message: "My owner will be back soon. Don't worry! The heating or air conditioning is on. , the current temperature is XX degrees." If the car's battery is low, the driver will receive a push notification on his phone to return to check on the pet.
