Abstract

This disclosure relates, e.g., to a method for calibrating the alignment of a moving object sensor that comprises the steps: Detection of the movement of the object sensor, multiple detection of at least one static object by the moving object sensor at different positions of the object sensor, calculation of the relative positions of the static object with respect to the corresponding positions of the object sensor, calculation of anticipated positions of the static object from the relative positions while assuming an alignment error of the object sensor, calculation of an error parameter from the anticipated positions, and minimization of the error parameter by adapting the alignment error of the object sensor.
