An example operation includes recording, from a vehicle sensor, data indicative of a plurality of movements of a first occupant in an interior of a vehicle; determining, from the recording, a first maximum range of extension among the plurality of movements, and a first amount of time between a first movement and a second movement of the plurality of movements; and assigning the first occupant to one of a plurality of age groups, based upon the determining.

In-cabin occupant age determination

An example operation includes one or more of determining a movement of an occupant in a vehicle, determining an atypical health condition based on the movement and a position of the occupant in the vehicle, determining if the occupant is breathing, based on an analysis performed by the vehicle, verifying the atypical health condition by the vehicle, based on received data from a device proximate the occupant, and sending a notification to an entity, based on the verification.

Occupant condition detection and response

An example operation includes one or more of receiving a call on a device associated with an occupant of a vehicle, determining a noise level proximate the occupant, and directing the call to a speaker proximate the occupant, based on the noise level.

Dynamic audio control

An example operation includes one or more of receiving a scan of a cabin of a vehicle, wherein the scan includes a spatial region inside the vehicle and outside the vehicle proximate at least one vehicle door, determining at least one occupant characteristic based on the scan, including a classification detection and a presence detection of at least one seat inside the vehicle, determining a cabin status based on the at least one occupant characteristic and communicating the cabin status to a mobile device.

In-cabin detection framework

An example operation includes detecting, by a vehicle, a location of a first potential passenger proximate to a road; determining, by the vehicle, a first road safety level of a pick-up for the first potential passenger; denying, by the vehicle, the pick-up for the first potential passenger when the determined first road safety level is below a threshold; determining, by the vehicle, a second road safety level of a pick-up for a second potential passenger; and picking up, by the vehicle, the second potential passenger, when the second road safety level is above the threshold.

Vehicle action determination based on occupant characteristics

Provided is a process that includes one or more of receiving data from sensors on a vehicle, where the data is associated with an internal environment of the vehicle and characteristics of an occupant of the vehicle and modifying functionality of the vehicle based on the received data. Modifying functionality includes updating a graphical user interface (GUI) of the vehicle and a GUI of a device associated with the occupant.

Dynamic GUI based on enhanced functionality

Display screen or portion thereof with graphical user interface

An example operation includes one or more of detecting a movement of an object in a vehicle when the vehicle is in motion, and determining that the object is an inanimate object, based on a vertical and horizontal distance of the detected movement.
