This paper explores an innovative application of artificial intelligence-controlled automatic air conditioning to improve passenger comfort and health on hot days. By analyzing various parameters such as sweat, body temperature and seating position, the air conditioning system can be adapted to each passenger, preventing sudden temperature changes that could cause discomfort or illness. This study explores the benefits and implementation of this advanced technology in the public transport sector.
