Abstract
A LiDAR sensor () is configured to sense information of an outside of a vehicle. An ultrasonic sensor () is configured to sense information of the outside of the vehicle in a different manner from the LiDAR sensor (). A first bracket () supports the LiDAR sensor () and the ultrasonic sensor (). A first sensor actuator () is configured to adjust a sensing reference position of the LiDAR sensor () relative to the first bracket (). A second sensor actuator () is configured to adjust a sensing reference position of the ultrasonic sensor () relative to first bracket (). A first bracket actuator () is configured to adjust at least one of a position and a posture of the first bracket () relative to the vehicle.
