Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a distance sensor with a method and device that aid the compensation of mounting tolerances of a distance sensor, where compensation is provided with little effort, quickly and reliably. This is achieved by having the distance sensor (1) emit its rays (2) at an aperture angle (a) of 0.1.degree. to 10.degree. and pick up data while the vehicle is moving straight forward, and determining an angle error (6) by comparing the data picked up during a change of channels.
