Abstract
A steering system includes a motor, and a processor configured to perform a method. The method includes computing, by a processor, a predicted steering angle at a future time step. The method further includes determining, by the processor, a predicted vehicle-position at the future time step based on the predicted steering angle. The method further includes detecting, by the processor, a proximity to an object at the future time step based on predicted vehicle-position. The method further includes generating, by the processor, an intervention signal in response to the proximity being below a predetermined threshold.
