Abstract

A method for vehicle control includes connecting one or more wearable computing devices, each associated with one or more vehicle occupants, to a vehicle and receiving physiological data associated with the one or more vehicle occupants. The method includes detecting a trigger event based on at least one of the physiological data and vehicle data and determining a health state of each of the one or more vehicle occupants based on the physiological data, the health state describing a current condition of each of the one or more vehicle occupants. The method includes determining a priority level for the health state of each of the one or more vehicle occupants, and controlling one or more vehicle systems of the vehicle to provide an indication of the health state according to the priority level and a location of each of the one or more vehicle occupants.
