Vehicle Personalization System
First Claim
1. A vehicle comprising:
- a seat assembly for supporting an occupant;
at least one reconfigurable system mounted with respect to the seat assembly and having a plurality of selectively variable parameters; and
a controller beingoperatively connected to said at least one reconfigurable system to control the values of said plurality of selectively variable parameters,configured to receive data indicative of physical characteristics of a person from at least one data storage medium,configured to determine values of said selectively variable parameters according to a predetermined algorithm based on the data indicative of physical characteristics of a person, andconfigured to cause said selectively variable parameters to assume the determined values.

Abstract
A vehicle includes at least one reconfigurable system having a plurality of selectively variable parameters, and a controller that is operatively connected to the at least one reconfigurable system to control the values of the plurality of selectively variable parameters. The controller is also configured to receive data indicative of physical characteristics of a person from at least one data storage medium, and configured to determine values of the selectively variable parameters according to a predetermined algorithm based on the data indicative of physical characteristics of a person. The controller is also configured to cause the selectively variable parameters to assume the determined values.
