Abstract
Sensor data and data from V2V messages are used to detect obstacles. Additional obstacles are identified in map data according to a vehicle's position. In response to detecting a turn intent, a controller calculates a turn path according to the detected obstacles and properties of the vehicle. The turn path is presented to a user, such as by display on a HUD or superimposing the turn path on an image from a forward facing camera. A desired steering angle to traverse the turn path may be displayed, such as relative to the current steering angle of the vehicle. Notifications regarding the path and turning intent of other vehicle may be displayed along with the turn path.
