Patent attributes
Systems and methods are provided for validating a sensor system associated with a vehicle. The vehicle is equipped with a set of replica sensors selected and positioned to emulate an optical path of a master set of sensors that has already been validated. The second vehicle is driven for a distance less than that required for validation of the sensor system to acquire a first set of data associated with the set of replica sensors and a second set of data associated with the sensor system. A machine learning model is trained on the first and second sets of data to provide an image transfer function. The image transfer function is applied to a set of master validation data produced during validation of the master vehicle to produce a set of transformed validation data. The new sensor system is validated with the set of transformed validation data.
