Systems and methods for evaluating the performance of three-dimensional (3D) sensors can include, for example, obtaining, via a 3D sensor in a testing apparatus, range information of a scene within a field-of-view (FOV) of the 3D sensor. The scene includes a plurality of targets disposed within the testing apparatus. Each of the plurality of targets is located at a different distance from the 3D sensor in the testing apparatus. A validation of the performance of the 3D sensor at the different distances is performed at a same point in time, based on the range information. An indication of a result of the validation is provided.
