Systems and methods for validating sensor calibration

A method, comprising:

• moving a vehicle and at least one object relative to each other, the vehicle comprising a plurality of sensors and the at least one object comprising at least one calibration feature;
• detecting, with the plurality of sensors, the at least one calibration feature of the at least one object while the at least one object and the vehicle are moving relative to each other, wherein each sensor of the plurality of sensors comprises a plurality of parameters, the plurality of parameters comprising a plurality of intrinsic parameters and a plurality of extrinsic parameters;
• receiving known calibration feature data associated with the at least one calibration feature, wherein the known calibration feature data is known to be accurate;
• receiving, from each sensor of the plurality of sensors, detected feature data associated with the at least one calibration feature;
• comparing the received known feature data with the received detected feature data;
• generating, for each sensor of the plurality of sensors, a calibration error value based on the comparison of the received known feature data with the received detected feature data;
• and
• determining that at least one sensor of the plurality of sensors is incorrectly calibrated when the calibration error value corresponding with the at least one sensor is greater than a first calibration error threshold.

A non-transitory computer program product storing instructions that, when executed by at least one programmable processor, cause the at least one programmable computer processor to perform operations comprising:

• moving a vehicle and at least one object relative to each other, the vehicle comprising a plurality of sensors and the at least one object comprising at least one calibration feature;
• detecting, with the plurality of sensors, the at least one calibration feature of the at least one object while the at least one object and the vehicle are moving relative to each other, wherein each sensor of the plurality of sensors comprises a plurality of parameters, the plurality of parameters comprising a plurality of intrinsic parameters and a plurality of extrinsic parameters;
• receiving known calibration feature data associated with the at least one calibration feature, wherein the known calibration feature data is known to be accurate;
• receiving, from each sensor of the plurality of sensors, detected feature data associated with the at least one calibration feature;
• comparing the received known feature data with the received detected feature data;
• generating, for each sensor of the plurality of sensors, a calibration error value based on the comparison of the received known feature data with the received detected feature data;
• and
• determining that at least one sensor of the plurality of sensors is incorrectly calibrated when the calibration error value corresponding with the at least one sensor is greater than a first calibration error threshold.
