Abstract

The technology relates to fiducials for calibrating or validating a vehicle's sensors. One or more computing devices receive a plurality of data sets captured by the sensors from the plurality of fiducials. Each of the data sets corresponds to a respective sensor of the plurality of sensors. The one or more computing devices determine whether data in each of the plurality of data sets contains expected data representative of a respective fiducial of the plurality of fiducials. For each of the respective sensors, the one or more computing devices output a calibration status or a validation status associated with each data set that contains the expected data representative of the respective fiducial.
