Abstract

To provide in-vehicle devices that enhance passenger comfort. [Solution] The in-vehicle device 1 that controls the vehicle's multi-sensory coordination function includes an identification unit 2 that identifies the vehicle's driver, a determination unit 3 that determines the number of passengers in the vehicle, a control unit 4 that turns off the multi-sensory coordination function when a passenger performs a predetermined vehicle operation while the multi-sensory coordination function is ON, and a storage unit 5 that stores the combination of the driver and the number of passengers when the control unit 4 turns off the multi-sensory coordination function. The control unit 4 automatically turns off the multi-sensory coordination function when the combination of the driver identified by the identification unit 2 and the number of passengers determined by the determination unit 3 matches the combination of the driver and the number of passengers stored in the storage unit 5.
