Did it make your butt less or more hot?
So basically the passenger is out of luck her/himself. And s/he would have to press a button. Will the VC control both seats? I hope it leaves your seat alone.
VC is always two step process. You either press a button or call it to wake it up. In some "less advanced" cars you actually don't have to press a button to activate it. It also allows you to record your own phrase so it will recognize its owner. It also knows if it's coming from the passenger and the passenger does not have to press a button. But please don't get me wrong. I'm not arguing for VC.![Big Grin](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

Japanese minimalism is inspired by the aesthetic of Japan's traditional Zen Buddhism, and it focuses on keeping life simple, clean, and uncluttered by living with just the essentials.
Japanese Minimalism
There is a culture of everything has its place, there is an order to things. Clutter fosters unnecessary complexity, errors and wasted time. An example I have is, I know of a manager who is in charge of worldwide IT Operations in a major $12B+ Silicon Valley company. Her office and desk are clean and bare except for a notebook. Looks like she has nothing... Yet she in known as extremely organized and can respond quickly ro questions and emergencies. Both superiors and subordinates have followed suit; she has been recognized for her approach to work and efficiency in completing multi-year projects. I also think it helps that she is a very gifted person, so there's that.

For example:
let's say you are driving down the road and your navigation is operating en route somewhere, you can actually just say "Hey Toyota, zoom out". You do not need to wait for the pause.
other examples are with no wait or prompt "Hey Toyota, find me a Starbucks" No button push.
You can also do stuff like "Hey Toyota, who is the first president of the United States".
Dumb stuff like Tesla "Hey Toyota tell me a joke?"
Audio: (No button and no wait for the prompt)
"Hey Toyota, play XM channel 25
"Hey Toyota, play 98.1"
"Hey Toyota mute audio"
Phone: (no button and no wait for the prompt)
"Hey Toyota, call 222-232-2121
"Hey Toyota call Billy Madison"
Vehicle: (no button or wait for a prompt""Hey Toyota, what is my fuel consumption?"
Navigation: (no button or wait for a prompt"
"Hey Toyota, show me the turn by turn list"

The Toyota system doesn’t need the prompt. “Hey Toyota mute the radio”. I’ve yet to see MB or BMW eliminate the prompt or push button to summon or activate voice command.

I can also tell you, when these cars hit the Valley, you would see frustrated drivers pulled over trying to figure out what the heck they were doing. There is a learning curve and a paradigm shift. Not for everyone! Young people naturally take to the interface. Observing new drivers is half the fun of owning a Model 3.
All in, it is great to see an American company leading the world again, for once.

You can do that on the Mercedes too actually. At 0:42 he instructs the system to read a text message. Another example is at 1:06 when you can hear the speaker say "Hey Mercedes let's go home" and it begins navigation instantly. : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0j2XIM8k5c&t=42s
