ABSTRACT:
An electrical translation circuit for detecting the initiation and termination of a lane change or turn of a motorcycle, automobile, boat or other like vehicle. A linear acceleration sensor detects the lateral movement of a vehicle commencing a lane change or turn and produces a signal responsive to same. The output of the sensor assembly is translated into a detectable signal and input as a reset signal to memory units which have stored an electrical signal equivalent to the manually selected direction of the turn. An appropriate change in signal level from the sensor assembly is processed to eliminate a response to false turn indications. Upon the completion of the turn or lane change, the memory unit indicating the direction of change will be reset terminating the illumination of the vehicle's directional signal.
