Abstract

A method includes obtaining, by a processing device, an impact analysis configuration related to an image sensor operation type for an autonomous vehicle (AV), receiving, by the processing device, image data from a sensing system including at least one image sensor of the AV, causing, by the processing device, fault detection to be performed based on the image data, causing, by the processing device, a fault notification to be generated using the impact analysis configuration, and sending, by the processing device to a data processing system of the AV, the fault notification to perform at least one action to address the fault notification. The fault notification includes a fault summary related to the image sensor operation type.
