Abstract
A method of calibrating a LiDAR sensor mounted on a vehicle includes storing a reference three-dimensional image acquired by the LiDAR sensor while the LiDAR sensor is in an expected alignment with respect to the vehicle. The reference three-dimensional image includes a first image of a fixed feature on the vehicle. The method further includes, acquiring, using the LiDAR sensor, a three-dimensional image including a second image of the fixed feature, and determining a deviation from the expected alignment of the LiDAR sensor with respect to the vehicle by comparing the second image of the fixed feature in the three-dimensional image to the first image of the fixed feature in the reference three-dimensional image.
