Abstract: A system and a corresponding method are provided for setting at least one environmental condition in or around a vehicle in response to a mood. A sensor system senses at least one physical property indicative of a mood of at least one occupant in the vehicle and outputs a sensor signal with information regarding the physical property. At least one component is configured for providing an environmental condition, such as, lighting, temperature, sound, or aroma in the vehicle. A control system determines the mood by analyzing the sensor signal from the sensor system. The control system sets the environmental condition provided by the component dependent on the determined mood. The environmental conditions can be set outside the vehicle by suggesting an appropriate travel route dependent on the mood. A safety device can limit the maximum speed of the vehicle dependent on the determined mood.
