METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTING PRESENCE OF PARTIAL VISUAL FAULT IN LIDAR SENSOR OF VEHICLE

Abstract:

Embodiments of present disclosure relates to method and system to accurate detection of partial visual fault in lidar sensor of moving vehicle. Initially, first line cluster data for static objects present within first predefined view of Lidar sensor is determined. Static objects are tracked until viewing angle of Lidar sensor for corresponding static object is 90.degree.. The tracking is performed based on second line cluster data corresponding to first line cluster data for static objects present within second predefined view of Lidar sensor. During tracking, non-observation of second line cluster data corresponding to first line cluster data, for one or more static objects is detected. Angle of non-observation is determined for one or more static objects upon detection. Presence of partial visual fault for Lidar sensor is detected based on angle of non-observation, for notifying navigation system associated with moving vehicle.
