Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a storage device, for monitoring a vehicle are disclosed. A vehicle monitoring system for monitoring a vehicle includes one or more processors and one or more computer storage media storing instructions that are operable, when executed by the one or more processors, to cause the one or more processors to perform operations. The operations include: receiving, from a vehicle occupancy monitor and by the vehicle monitoring system, vehicle occupancy data that indicates presence of a vehicle occupant; receiving, by the vehicle monitoring system and from a sensor, sensor data that indicates an attribute of the vehicle; analyzing, by the vehicle monitoring system, the vehicle occupancy data and the sensor data; and based on analyzing the vehicle occupancy data and the sensor data, performing a vehicle monitoring system action.

Example methods and apparatus for adjusting a seat in a vehicle are described. One example method includes determining a first value of a distance between a first point in a vehicle and eyes of a user based on a first position of the eyes of the user and a position of the first point. A position relationship between the first point and a seat in which the user is located is preset. The vehicle determines adjustment information of the seat based on the first value, and performs an adjustment operation on the seat based on the adjustment information of the seat.

It is provided a drive apparatus for adjusting an interior assembly of a vehicle comprises an electromotive adjustment drive for producing an adjustment force, a self-locking adjustment kinematic mechanism for transmitting an adjustment force produced by the adjustment drive to the interior assembly, which adjustment kinematic mechanism can be driven by means of the adjustment drive, and a control device for controlling the adjustment drive. The control device is configured to activate an adjustment mode for adjustment of the interior assembly depending on at least one trigger criterion and, when the adjustment mode is activated, to actuate the adjustment drive with a support current of a magnitude such that the interior assembly can put into motion by means of a user force produced manually on the interior assembly by a user, overcoming the self-locking of the adjustment kinematic mechanism.
