1. A system comprising:
- a processor configured to;
determine a location of a wirelessly-identified device within a vehicle;
obtain a locking schema associated with the device and defining locking states for child-lockable vehicle systems; and
determine which of the child-lockable vehicle systems are within a predefined proximity to the device location; and
set the locking states, based on the locking schema, of child-lockable vehicle systems in the predefined proximity to the device location.

Abstract
A system includes a processor configured to determine the location of a wirelessly-identified device within a vehicle. The processor is also configured to determine a locking schema associated with the device for locking child-lockable vehicle systems and apply the locking schema to corresponding systems in a defined proximity to the determined device location.

17. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
obtaining a locking schema associated with an identified wireless device, the schema defining locking state settings for child-lockable vehicle systems; setting states of the child-lockable vehicle systems, based on the locking state settings, and wherein the systems are determined to be within a predefined proximity to a determined device location within a vehicle. - View Dependent Claims (18)

19. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
obtaining a locking schema defining child-lockable system locking state settings, the schema associated with a wireless device within a vehicle at a determined location within the vehicle; and applying the locking schema to child-lockable systems within the vehicle in a predefined proximity to the determined location, such that the child-lockable systems are set to the locking states defined by the locking schema when the child-lockable systems are within the predefined proximity to the device location. - View Dependent Claims (20)
