Abstract:
A turn signal system for activating a turn signal of a vehicle includes an electronic control unit having a processor and a non-transitory computer readable memory including a machine-readable instruction set. The electronic control unit is communicatively coupled to one or more external vehicle environment sensors, a vehicle speed sensor, and a turn signal. The machine-readable instruction set causes the processor to determine a vehicle speed based on an output signal of the vehicle speed sensor, predict a vehicle turning maneuver based on one or more environment signals output by the one or more external vehicle environment sensors when the vehicle speed is below a threshold, and automatically activate the turn signal in response to predicting the vehicle turning maneuver.

Claim (Index 16):
The method of  claim 12 , further comprising:\n receiving topography data from the one or more external vehicle environment sensors wherein the one or more external vehicle environment sensors comprises at least one LIDAR sensor; and determining at least one of an intersecting thoroughfare and a parking location based on the topography data.
