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 22):
The method of  claim 12 , further comprising:\n determining a confidence level associated with the predicted vehicle turning maneuver, wherein the confidence level is determined based on the vehicle speed, wherein activating the turn signal is further in response to determining the confidence level associated with the predicted vehicle turning maneuver is above a predetermined confidence level.
