Abstract
A camera of a vehicle has a field of view. A perception module of the vehicle is configured to determine a location of an object relative to the vehicle based on a model for the camera and a camera ground truth orientation of the camera. A calibration module is configured to: wirelessly receive images from the camera; determine a vehicle camera target based on the images; when the vehicle camera target is aligned with a calibration module target on the calibration module, determine a present orientation of the calibration module measured using a gyroscope of the calibration module; when at least one component of the present orientation of the calibration module is different than the at least one component of an expected orientation of the calibration module, determine an updated camera ground truth orientation of the camera; and wirelessly transmit the updated ground truth orientation to the vehicle.
