Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for predicting a driver's intention and future movements of a proximal vehicle, whether an automated vehicle or a human driven vehicle, are disclosed herein. A system for predicting future movements of a vehicle includes an intersection component, a camera system, a boundary component, and a prediction component. The intersection component is configured to determine that a parent vehicle is near an intersection. The camera system is configured to capture an image of the proximal vehicle. The boundary component is configured to identify a sub-portion of the image containing a turn signal indicator on the proximal vehicle. The prediction component is configured to predict future movement of the proximal vehicle through the intersection based on a state of the turn signal indicator.

Claim (Index 27):
A computer implemented method comprising:\n receiving an image of a proximal vehicle near an intersection and storing the image in computer memory; identifying, using one or more processors, a sub-portion of the image containing a turn signal indicator on the proximal vehicle; identifying, using the one or more processors, a sub-portion of the image containing a driver of the proximal vehicle; processing, using the one or more processors, image data in the sub-portion of the image containing a turn signal indicator to determine the state of the turn signal indicator; processing, using the one or more processors, image data in the sub-portion of the image containing a driver of the proximal vehicle to determine the body language of the driver; predicting, using the one or more processors, future movement of the proximal vehicle through the intersection based on the state of the turn signal indicator and the body language of the driver; determining, using the one or more processors, a time for a parent vehicle to proceed through the intersection based on the predicted future movement of the proximal vehicle; and causing, using one or more processors or actuators, the parent vehicle to perform a driving maneuver based on the determined time to proceed through the intersection.
