Abstract
A calibration apparatus and method suitable for calibration of an offset sensor of a subject vehicle. The calibration apparatus comprises a reference structure that is placed into, a reference locus using image data generated by a camera associated with the reference structure. An offset-target structure is then placed into position by coupling the offset-target structure to the reference structure, the coupling providing an appropriate locus for the offset-target structure during calibration of the offset sensor. The coupling restricts the linear and rotational displacement of the offset-target structure during calibration.
