1. A system for controlling a vehicle, the system comprising:
one or more processors, the one or more processors being configured to:
recognize a gaze of an occupant in the vehicle;
determine a point of interest among external objects visible through a side window of the vehicle based on the gaze of the occupant; and
change a seat position of the occupant to enable a continuous stare at the point of interest according to a movement of the vehicle, such that when it is determined that the gaze of the occupant remains on the point of interest and the occupant turns his/her head to continuously stare at the point of interest for equal to or longer than a preset time, a seat on which the occupant is seated is rotated to allow the occupant to continuously stare at the point of interest in a more comfortable position.
