System and method for collaborative sensor calibration

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of a computing system, cause the computing system to perform operations comprising:

• determining, from a first vehicle in motion, whether a sensor disposed with the first vehicle needs to be calibrated;
• sending, from the first vehicle in motion, a request for assistance in collaborative calibration of the sensor, the request including at least one of a position of the first vehicle and information about the sensor;
• receiving a response to the request, the response indicating a second vehicle to travel to the first vehicle in motion to facilitate the collaborative calibration of the sensor;
• and
• while the first vehicle is in motion, facilitating the collaborative calibration of the sensor in coordination with the second vehicle in motion by enabling the sensor to acquire information of a target present on the second vehicle in motion.

A computer-implemented method, comprising:

• sending, from a first vehicle in motion, a request for assistance in collaborative calibration of a sensor disposed with the first vehicle, the request including at least one of a position of the first vehicle and a configuration of the sensor with respect to the first vehicle;
• receiving a response to the request, the response indicating a second vehicle to travel to the first vehicle in motion to facilitate the collaborative calibration of the sensor;
• and
• while the first vehicle is in motion, facilitating the collaborative calibration of the sensor in coordination with the second vehicle in motion by enabling the sensor to acquire information of a target present on the second vehicle in motion.
