DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[008] In conventional vehicles, a turn signal lamp is mounted in the vehicle to provide an indication to the incoming vehicle and pedestrians that a rider of the vehicle wants to take a turn. This feature of the vehicle enables user safety and also informs the incoming vehicles about the intention of the rider and thereby prevents accidents.
[009] However, in many situations, the rider after giving an indication to the incoming vehicles about taking a turn, forgets to switch off the turn signal lamp. In such a scenario, the turn signal lamps are on throughout the vehicle journey and thereby consumes power from a battery of the vehicle unnecessarily.
[010] Additionally, continuous power consumption of the turn signal lamps from the vehicle battery leads to inadequate power supply to other vehicle components such as a horn, a headlamp of the vehicle etc., and thereby leads to inefficient functioning of the vehicle and also threatens the safety of the vehicle due to threat of accidental shutdown of vehicle components due to lack of power.
[011] In order to overcome the above stated problems, a turn signal lamp (TSL) control system is devised to automatically turn on and turn off the turn signal lamps after the turning of the vehicle is completed. In known arts, such a turn signal lamp control system is configured to run based on GPS communication between the vehicle and an input device, such as a smart phone connected to the vehicle to enable navigation of the vehicle. However, such a GPS based control system lacks reliability due to loss of communication between a vehicle GPS module and the input device GPS module. Furthermore, the GPS based communication is primarily of low frequency range and hence the system takes a long time to establish an exact location to turn the vehicle and thereby the turn signal lamps may be switched on when not required.
[012] Furthermore, in the known arts, the GPS based turn signal lams control system does not provide any indication to incoming vehicle when the rider wants to change a lane of driving, especially in highways. In such a condition, if the turn signal lamps are not switched on by the control system, or if the rider forgets to turn on the turn signal lamps, then the incoming vehicles will be bewildered if the rider takes a sudden turn and thereby this scenario increases the risk of vehicular accidents.
[013] Additionally, in a known art, the turn signal lamps of the vehicle are switched on by the control system which receives an input from an IMU (inertial measurement unit) at the instant when the rider is taking the turn. However, the turn signal lamps are conventionally required to be turned on before the rider will be taking the turn in order to make the incoming vehicle aware about the rider’s intention. The turn signal lamps if configured to switch on at the turning instant, then the purpose of making the incoming vehicle about the rider’s intention to take a turn is lost.
[014] Hence, it is an object of the present invention to overcome all the above stated and other related problems existing in the known arts, with respect to a turn signal lamp control system and a method thereof to inform the incoming vehicles about the intention of the rider to take a turn before the rider takes the turn as well as other problems of known art.
[015] It is further an object of the present invention to provide an efficient control system to control the turning on and off of the turn signal lamps without draining the vehicle battery.
[016] It is further an object of the present invention to provide a turn signal lamp control system which indicates the incoming vehicles about lane changing by the rider on a highway.
[017] It is further an object of the present invention to reduce and diminish the scope of false illumination of the turn signal lamps due to ineffective communication between GPS modules of the vehicle and an input device.
[018] It is further an object of the present invention to provide increased efficiency of the vehicle and thereby reduce threats of vehicular collision and accidents.

In another embodiment, the plurality of turn signal lamps (110) is configured to be manually controlled by the rider and the operation of the control system (100) is suspended during manual operation of the plurality of turn signal lamps (110) by the rider.
[046] Figure 3a illustrates a flowchart depicting a method of operating the turn signal lamps by the turn signal control system, in accordance with an embodiment of the present subject matter. Figure 3b illustrates the flowchart depicting a method of operating the turn signal lamps by the turn signal control system, in accordance with an embodiment of the present subject matter. For brevity, figures 3a and 3b will be discussed together. A method (200) for operation of the plurality of turn signal lamps (110) by the control system (100) comprises of the following steps. The vehicle control unit (104) receives a preset route by the rider for travelling from an origin point to a destination point through the input device (108), and the route is being monitored by the GPS module of the communication unit (112). Further, the vehicle control unit (104) determines the change inputs received from the IMU (106) and the communication unit (112). Thereafter, the vehicle control unit (104) controls the plurality of turn signal lamps (110) to turn on and turn off based on the change in inputs of the IMU (106) and the communication unit (112).
[047] The vehicle control unit (104) first determines if the rider has started the vehicle (102) as shown in step (202). The vehicle control unit (104) further determines if the rider has set a destination of the vehicle (102) through the input device (108) as shown in step (204). The vehicle control unit (104) further checks and confirms if the GPS module of the communication unit (112) is activated and the preset route is visible on the vehicle (102) as shown in step (206). In one embodiment, the preset route is visible on an instrument cluster of the vehicle (102). Further, the vehicle control unit (104) checks if the plurality of turn signal lamps (110) are being manually controlled by the rider or not as shown in step (208). The vehicle control unit (104) follows the inputs provided by the rider as shown in step (210) and keeps the plurality of turn signal lamps (110) on until the rider manually switches it off as shown in steps (210, 212).
[048] Further, if the vehicle control unit (104) determines that the rider has not given any manual inputs, then the vehicle control unit (104) determines if there is a turn in the preset route, and at what predetermined distance will the turn come based on the vehicle speed and after receiving inputs from the GPS module of the communication unit (112) as shown in steps (214, 216). If the vehicle control unit (104) receives an input from the GPS module of the communication unit (112), then the vehicle control unit (104) determines the direction of the turn that has to be taken as shown in step (218). Thereafter, the vehicle control unit (104) turns on the left turn signal lamp of the plurality of turn signal lamps (110) if it’s a left turn, as shown in step (220), or turns on the right turn signal lamp of the plurality of turn signal lamps (110), if its s right turn, as shown in step (222).
[049] Further, the vehicle control unit (104) checks the status of the IMU (106) and confirms if the IMU (106) has also detected the same left turn or the right turn as that of the input received from the GPS module of the communication unit (112) as shown in step (224). If the above condition is satisfied, then the vehicle control unit (104) keeps one of the turn signal lamps of the plurality of turn signal lamps (110) on till the turn is completed as shown in step (228). If the above condition is not satisfied, then the vehicle control unit (104) turns off the plurality of turn signal lamps and waits for a new input until the GPS module of the communication unit (112) is rerouted. This scenario generally arises if the rider himself wants to change the route or has skipped a turn accidentally and wants to take the next turn to reach his destination.
[050] Further, if the condition stated in step (228) is satisfied, the vehicle control unit (104) if the vehicle (102) is still running or not as shown in step (230), if the vehicle (102) is still running, then the vehicle control unit (104) keeps one of the turn signal lamp of the plurality of turn signal lamps (110) on until the turn is completed and the vehicle (102) keeps of running. If the vehicle control unit (104) determines that the vehicle (102) is not running as shown in step (230), then the vehicle control unit (104) turns off the plurality of turn signal lamps (110) and the vehicle (102) runs on a smooth straight line as shown in step (234).
[051] Further, if the vehicle control unit (104) does not receive any input of a turn from the GPS module of the communication unit (112) as shown in step (216), then the vehicle control unit (104) checks and confirms if the turn has been detected by the IMU (206) as shown in step (236). If the vehicle control unit (104) is unable to conclusively detect the turn, then the vehicle control unit (104) waits to again receive any input from the communication unit (112) and the IMU (106) as shown in step (B) and the plurality of turn signal lamps (110) of the vehicle (102) can be manually controlled.
[052] If the vehicle control unit (104) confirms that the turn has been detected by the IMU (106) as shown in step (236), then the vehicle control unit (104) determines the direction of the turn as shown in step (238). Thereafter, the vehicle control unit (104) turns on the left turn signal lamp of the plurality of turn signal lamps (110) if it’s a left turn, as shown in step (240), or turns on the right turn signal lamp of the plurality of turn signal lamps (110), if its s right turn, as shown in step (242).
[053] Thereafter, the vehicle control unit (104) determines if the vehicle (102) is still running or not as shown in step (244). If the vehicle control unit (104) determines that the vehicle (102) is still running, then the vehicle control unit (104) keeps one of the turn signal lamp of the plurality of turn signal lamps (110) on till the turn is completed as shown in step (246), and the vehicle control unit (104) turns off the one of the turn signal lamp of the plurality of turn signal lamps (110) once the turn is completed. If the vehicle control unit (104) determines that the vehicle (102) is not running, then the vehicle control unit (104) turns off the plurality of turn signal lamps (110) as shown in step (248) and waits till the route is rerouted by the GPS module of the communication unit (112). Further, the vehicle control unit (104) checks at each turn of the preset route and thereby controls the functioning of the plurality of turn signal lamps (110) as per the method (200) stated above.
[054] While the present invention has been shown and described with reference to the foregoing preferred embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that changes in form, connection, and detail may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
