Abstract

A method is provided for mounting a plurality of radar units to a vehicle. The method involves determining, for each radar unit, a measured pitch direction and a measured yaw direction based on data obtained using a photogrammetry system. The method also involves determining yaw angles between at least two of the radar units based on at least one of the measured yaw directions. The method also involves determining, for each radar unit, a pitch offset and a yaw offset. The method also involves adjusting at least one of the radar units based on at least one of the determined pitch offsets and at least one of the determined yaw offsets. Also provided is a device for performing the method.
