An air conditioning control system for controlling the air conditioning system
of a vehicle. The air conditioning control system is capable of determining the
occupancy status of various locations in the vehicle interior. The air conditioning
control system alters the flow rate of conditioned air to various portions of the
vehicle interior based at least partially upon the occupancy of those areas of
the vehicle interior. The air conditioning control system delivers increased amounts
of conditioned air to the occupied portions of the vehicle interior when the conditioned
air is of a comfortable temperature. The air conditioning control system delivers
decreased amounts of conditioned air to the occupied portions of the vehicle interior
when the conditioned air is most likely to be of an uncomfortable temperature.
