Introduction
Overview
The Vehicle SDK provides the Vehicle API for retrieving and controlling vehicle information. It offers APIs by functional domain—such as Brake, CarInfo, Door, DrivingMode, EvBattery, HVAC, Light, Odometer, Safety, Seat, SideMirror, Steeringwheel, Tire, TurnSignal, Window, and Wiper—for querying and controlling vehicle status.
The package structure and API specifications can be found in the Vehicle API Reference, and implementation examples using the Vehicle SDK are available in the Tutorial and Sample Project.
The Vehicle SDK may support only a subset of features depending on the vehicle model. The API is provided by functional domain (e.g., Door, Window, HVAC), and support for each domain can be checked using the checkXXXCapability API of the respective interface.
Development Environment Setup
To use the Vehicle SDK, install the Pleos Connect Emulator in Android Studio, and then proceed with the AVD settings.
API Groups (Domain)
The Vehicle SDK is divided into API groups (interfaces) by function. You obtain the corresponding group object via vehicle.getXXX() and use it.
| API Group | Description |
|---|---|
| Brake | Query brake pedal and parking brake status |
| CarInfo | Query basic vehicle information (dimensions, manufacturer, model year, etc.) |
| Display | Query/set infotainment display data units (e.g., temperature unit) |
| Door | Control and query door open/close, lock/unlock, and status |
| DrivingMode | Query drive mode and cruise control information |
| EvBattery | Query EV battery and charging status, and efficiency (EV economy) |
| HVAC | Control and query heating, ventilation, and A/C (temperature, airflow, humidity, etc.) |
| Light | Query lighting status and control |
| Odometer | Query total distance, trip distance/time, and distance unit |
| Safety | Query vehicle warning information |
| Seat | Control and query seat position, angle, and functions |
| SideMirror | Query/set side mirror heating status |
| Steeringwheel | Query steering wheel status and heating; control heating |
| Tire | Query tire status |
| TurnSignal | Query turn signal status |
| Window | Control and query window status |
| Wiper | Control and query wiper status |
