Abstract:
Systems and methods for automated vehicle sensor calibration and verification are provided. One example method involves monitoring a vehicle using one or more external sensors of a vehicle calibration facility. The sensor data may be indicative of a relative position of the vehicle in the vehicle calibration facility. The method also involves causing the vehicle to navigate in an autonomous driving mode, based on the sensor data, from a current position of the vehicle to a first calibration position in the vehicle calibration facility. The method also involves causing a first sensor of the vehicle to perform a first calibration measurement while the vehicle is at the first calibration position. The method also involves calibrating the first sensor based on at least the first calibration measurement.
