Abstract
A system for determining pose of a lidar sensor in an environment in order to calibrate the lidar sensor. The system includes at least two calibration boards, each having a first edge and a second edge. There is a controller coupled to the lidar sensor to cause the lidar sensor to direct a lidar scan at the calibration boards. The controller causes the lidar sensor to receive a reflection of the lidar scan from the calibration boards and determine locations of a first crossing point on the first edge and a second crossing point on the second edge of the calibration boards. The controller determines a reference plane defined by the first and second crossing points of each of the calibration boards, performs a plane transform of the reference frame to obtain a lidar sensor plane and determine from the lidar sensor plane a pose of the lidar sensor.
