Facial Recognition Via Cabin Camera for Driver Profile Selection
Summary
Fixes profile conflicts when two owners enter by using the cabin camera for facial recognition.
How It Would Work
What it is:
A software update that uses the vehicle's internal cabin camera to identify who is sitting in the driver's seat and switch to their profile automatically.
How it would work:
1. When a driver sits down, the cabin camera performs a quick, secure facial scan.
2. The system instantly matches the driver's face to their saved profile.
3. The seat, steering wheel, mirrors, and UI preferences adjust automatically before the brake pedal is pressed.
Why it's needed:
Currently, when two owners enter with phone keys, Bluetooth frequently selects the wrong profile. Camera-based facial recognition completely eliminates this issue with zero new hardware costs.
