Abstract
A system and method provide notification regarding an estimated movement path of a vehicle. A first vehicle includes an identification feature. A second vehicle includes an identification feature detection unit, an output unit and a transmission unit. A heuristic unit is configured to determine an estimation of an imminent movement path of the first vehicle. A position detection unit is configured to detect a current position of the first vehicle and/or the second vehicle and to transmit the detected current position to the heuristic unit. The identification feature detection unit is configured to detect and transmit the identification feature to the heuristic unit via the transmission unit. The heuristic unit is configured to transmit the current estimation for the first vehicle to the output unit via the transmission unit. The output unit is configured to communicate the estimation to a driver of the second vehicle.
