A method for managing passenger comfort, the method comprising: connecting a passenger mobile device with a vehicle computer system in a vehicle using a near-field communications reader for a passenger seat in the vehicle for a passenger ; identifying, by the vehicle computer system , passenger-adjusted passenger comfort preferences associated with the passenger seat based on changes made to an environment in the vehicle by the passenger ; sending the passenger-adjusted passenger comfort preferences made to the environment by the passenger from the vehicle computer system to the passenger mobile device , associating, by the passenger mobile device , the received passenger-adjusted passenger comfort preferences with different current states for the passenger based on at least a sensed heart rate of the passenger that is sensed by a sensor system located in a wearable device ; receiving, by the vehicle computer system , a number of stored passenger comfort preferences from the passenger mobile device when the passenger mobile device detects a change in a current state of the passenger based on at least a sensed heart rate of the passenger; and sending, by the vehicle computer system , a number of signals to a number of vehicle systems to change the environment for the passenger using the number of stored passenger comfort preferences, enabling an increase in the passenger comfort in the vehicle ; and comparing the passenger-adjusted passenger comfort preferences for an identified state with the stored passenger comfort preferences for the identified state and updating the stored passenger comfort preferences for the identified state when a difference is present. connecting a passenger mobile device with a vehicle computer system in a vehicle using a near-field communications reader for a passenger seat in the vehicle for a passenger ; identifying, by the vehicle computer system , passenger-adjusted passenger comfort preferences associated with the passenger seat based on changes made to an environment in the vehicle by the passenger ; sending the passenger-adjusted passenger comfort preferences made to the environment by the passenger from the vehicle computer system to the passenger mobile device , associating, by the passenger mobile device , the received passenger-adjusted passenger comfort preferences with different current states for the passenger based on at least a sensed heart rate of the passenger that is sensed by a sensor system located in a wearable device ; receiving, by the vehicle computer system , a number of stored passenger comfort preferences from the passenger mobile device when the passenger mobile device detects a change in a current state of the passenger based on at least a sensed heart rate of the passenger; and sending, by the vehicle computer system , a number of signals to a number of vehicle systems to change the environment for the passenger using the number of stored passenger comfort preferences, enabling an increase in the passenger comfort in the vehicle ; and comparing the passenger-adjusted passenger comfort preferences for an identified state with the stored passenger comfort preferences for the identified state and updating the stored passenger comfort preferences for the identified state when a difference is present. <EOS>
