Detailed explanation-2: -thermostat, device to detect temperature changes for the purpose of maintaining the temperature of an enclosed area essentially constant. In a system including relays, valves, switches, etc., the thermostat generates signals, usually electrical, when the temperature exceeds or falls below the desired value.

Detailed explanation-3: -Automatic Temperature Control, as its name implies, is an automatic climate control system, which automatically controls interior temperature based on the driver’s demands and temperature information from various sources. ATC does this through direct interaction with the vehicle’s A/C and heating systems.
