Abstract

Systems and methods for calibrating an image capture device for a materials handling vehicle. One embodiment of a system includes the image capture device and a vehicle computing device, where the vehicle computing device stores logic that when executed by a processor, causes the materials handling vehicle to determine a current location of the materials handling vehicle in a warehouse and determine a seed value associated with the image capture device, the seed value representing initial calibration parameters of the image capture device. In some embodiments, the logic causes the materials handling vehicle to capture image data in the warehouse, compare the image data with a site map, and determine a calibrated value for the image capture device from the comparison and the seed value.
