Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a system and method of aligning a sensor assembly for a vehicle. The sensor assembly is disposed along a vehicle body and has a sensory face from which a measurement signal is transmitted. The sensor alignment system includes an alignment gauge that measures a datum angle of the sensor assembly, a sensor adjustment tool that adjusts a position of the sensor assembly relative to the vehicle body, and a controller that is in communication with the alignment gauge and the sensor adjustment tool. The controller further operates the sensor adjustment tool to control the datum angle of the sensor assembly to within a tolerance range.
