Classification: CPC B  G | IPC B  G

Claim 9:
10. A method in a data processing system comprising at least one processor and at least one memory, the at least one memory comprising instructions executed by the at least one processor to implement a vehicle monitoring system, the method comprising:
(a) receiving, from a first plurality of sensors coupled to an ego vehicle, parametric variable information associated with a parametric variable;
(b) selecting a predetermined ego vehicle input based on the parametric variable information;
(c) determining, subsequent to receiving the parametric variable information, a first maneuver for the ego vehicle to perform based on the predetermined ego vehicle input,
the predetermined ego vehicle input comprising at least one value for a parameter corresponding to dynamics of the ego vehicle;

(d) causing a vehicle control system of the ego vehicle to perform the first maneuver;
(e) receiving, from a second plurality of sensors coupled to the ego vehicle, second vehicle information about a second vehicle;
(f) inferring an intention of the second vehicle based on the second vehicle information; and
(g) causing the vehicle control system to perform a second maneuver based on the intention,
wherein the predetermined ego vehicle input is calculated to allow an intention of the second vehicle to be inferred from first vehicle information received after the ego vehicle performs the first maneuver.
