VEHICLE SENSOR CALIBRATION FROM INTER-VEHICLE COMMUNICATION

Last updated:

Abstract:

The calibration of a vehicle sensor can be conducted based on communication between vehicles. A first vehicle needing sensor calibration can receive calibration information from a second vehicle, indicating the location of a calibration marker at one or more times. The first vehicle can then compare the calibration information with measurement information of the calibration marker made by a sensor, and recalibrate the sensor based on a comparison of the calibration information and measurement information. According to some embodiments, vehicles may leverage existing vehicle-to-vehicle communications (e.g., Cellular vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication) to broadcast calibration capabilities.
