Abstract
Various embodiments of the teachings herein include a method for determining a target position of a surroundings sensor of a vehicle using a vehicle-side attachment element as a calibration object, wherein the sensor and the attachment element are movable relative to each other. The method includes: ascertaining a first position of the surroundings sensor in a first relative pose; moving the sensor and/or the element from the first pose to a second pose between the sensor and the element; ascertaining a second actual position of the surroundings sensor in the second relative pose; and determining the target position of the surroundings sensor by averaging the first position and the second position to form an averaged actual position and assigning the averaged actual position as the target position.
