Abstract
Systems and methods for enabling control of various functions of a vehicle based on which occupant made a control input are described. In an example, a method includes determining which occupant of the vehicle is interacting with the vehicle user interface (UI) based on image data or an RF signal coupled to the occupant making the control input, and then responsively executing an action corresponding to the control input only if the occupant making the control input is permitted to do so.
