TEMPERATURE CONDITIONED ASSEMBLY HAVING A CONTROLLER IN COMMUNICATION WITH A TEMPERATURE SENSOR

There is disclosed a temperature conditioned assembly for use in a component (e.g., a seat or steering wheel) of a transportation vehicle (e.g., an automotive vehicle, a plane, a train or the like). The assembly typically includes one or more conditions such as a heater and/or a ventilation or cooling system. A controller and a temperature sensor are also included in the assembly. Preferably, the controller is programmed to effect an energy output sequence that is based upon the ambient temperature sensed by the temperature sensor.
