Abstract

See full text

Systems and techniques are provided for using a multi-sensor modality target to evaluate autonomous vehicle sensors. An example method can include identifying a sensor target panel based on a first set of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) return signals corresponding to at least one retroreflective panel associated with the sensor target panel. In some aspects, the method can include transmitting a plurality of LiDAR beams directed toward the sensor target panel, wherein the sensor target panel includes a first sensor target region that is associated with a first reflectivity value and a second sensor target region that is associated with a second reflectivity value. In some cases, the method can include determining one or more LiDAR parameters based on a second set of LiDAR return signals corresponding to the sensor target panel.
