I noticed that the current API for controlling the windows of a parked vehicle only allows two commands: vent and close. While this is useful, it seems to be missing a crucial feature—the ability to fully open the windows. This would be a great addition for users who want more control over the vehicle’s ventilation when parked.
Problem:
Right now, if someone wants to fully open the windows, they have to do it manually. The API doesn’t support this option. It only allows you to vent (partially open) or close the windows. A full window opening command would be really helpful in situations where people want more airflow, like on a hot day, but without needing to physically be near the car.
Proposed Solution:
Add a new open command to the existing window control functionality in the API.
This would work alongside vent and close, giving users the ability to fully open the windows when the vehicle is parked.
The options for position would now include open, vent, and close.
Why This Would Be Great:
More Convenience: This would allow users to fully open the windows for better airflow, especially in hot weather.
Completes the Feature Set: It seems like a natural progression to offer open alongside vent and close for a complete window control system.
Better Comfort: Sometimes users may want to fully open windows from a distance, and adding this feature would make it easier without needing to physically approach the car.
Considerations:
The open command should still follow the same safety rules as the existing controls (e.g., preventing window control while the car is in motion).
It might also be cool to eventually let users control individual windows (front-left, rear-right, etc.), but that could be a future improvement.
Challenges:
From a technical perspective, the main challenge would be ensuring the open command integrates smoothly with the current system and doesn’t compromise safety or security.
There might also be regulatory or legal considerations around fully opening windows remotely, so those would need to be checked.
Summary:
Adding a full window opening feature to the API would be a big improvement for user comfort and control. It feels like a natural addition that completes the window control functionality, and I think a lot of people would appreciate having this option available.
